''Intricately plotted, rip-roaring World War Two adventure - proper heroes, proper villains, royal intrigue and grounded in real history'' IAN RANKIN
_________
July, 1940. The Nazis launch their invasion of Britain - starting with the Channel Islands . . .
And soldier turned safecracker Bill O''Hagan gets an offer: hang for his crimes, or serve his country.
The mission - land on occupied Alderney, impersonate a local, steal the invasion plans, escape. He almost believes they''re not lying to him.
In Portugal, the former King, Edward, Duke of Windsor, receives an altogether different proposal from Germany: ease the invasion and he''ll get his throne back. But Edward will not readily betray his country . . .
An embittered former king. An unreformed thief.
And a secret upon which the fates of nations lie . . .
_________

''Grimwood matches Robert Harris, Joseph Kanon, Ken Follett and John le Carré thrill for thrill in this breath-taking WWII story of atmospheric suspense, daring espionage and political intrigue'' GLASGOW LIFE
''Highly entertaining . . . There are complications, twists and turns of plot in abundance. Every bit as credible or satisfying as James Bond'' SCOTSMAN
