In the brutal chaos of WW2, three people find their lives inextricably interwoven in a web of courage, betrayal and love. They are a young Englishwoman, a vicious Paris pimp turned Nazi collaborator and a German scientist.
Another magnificent tale of treachery at sea from a storytelling genius.
The sea and its secrets always fascinated the Trevelyan brothers. It is on an expedition to a remote Pacific atoll that Mark dies - a natural death Mike is told. There was no love lost between the brothers. But the circumstances surrounding Mark's death were suspicious enough to force Mike to investigate - even without the series of violent attacks on him that followed.
