About this audiobook
A classic tale of espionage on the eve of the first world war.
A murdered British civil servant. Stolen Government documents. A fleeing German agent. Events that presage a desperate new assignment for secret service agent Alexander Templeman.
Tasked with helping to keep an escaping German scientist out of the hands of ruthless enemy agents, Templeman will soon find himself isolated and fighting for his very life. If the uncertain and inexperienced agent fails in his mission it will see Great Britain left at a potentially fatal disadvantage in the coming war.
The second adventure in this classic old fashioned espionage series, strongly flavoured with period details, marvellous characters and a fast-paced plot. If you like John Buchan and Erskine Childers then you’ll love this one.
