About this audiobook
In September 1944, nearly ten thousand Allied soldiers were dropped into the Netherlands. Thousands never came back.
The plan was called Market Garden. The intelligence said it would work. The intelligence was wrong — and someone made sure of it.
The Watchman is a novel about the real work of espionage: cover identities, coded transmissions, analysis, silence. How an analyst reads four versions of the same document and finds the leak. How a man sits across from a traitor, watches him pour the wine, and gives nothing away.
At the center: a trusted man inside British intelligence built a pipeline from London to Moscow — and from Moscow to the enemy.
Not a German agent. A Soviet one.
Built inside the real history of Operation North Pole, the Englandspiel, and the disaster at Arnhem Bridge.
THIS IS WHAT INTELLIGENCE LOOKS LIKE FROM THE INSIDE.
Dan Hall writes historical intelligence fiction grounded in espionage history, institutional failure, and the human cost of information in wartime.
