About this book

Summary

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.

About the Author

Ben Westerham

Ben writes crime, mystery and thriller stories, where the emphasis is on strongly developed characters. Since Ben has a pretty decent sense of humour, this often finds its way into his writing. Ben also writes an on-going series of short stories that venture into the darker recesses of the human mind. Born in London, brought up in Kent in the south-east of England, Ben now lives in rural Northamptonshire in the English Midlands, with his family and a heavily over-worked computer. Oh, and he loves a bit of plain chocolate.View all Audiobooks by Ben Westerham
