Summary

An old-school espionage thriller in the classic tradition of John Buchan and Erskine Childers. October 1913. Europe teeters on the edge of chaos. A web of intrigue. A race against time. A spy who will risk everything.

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
