Publisher's summary

An incredible spy thriller with a twist you won’t see coming, this is the brilliant conclusion to Alex Gerlis' masterful Richard Prince spy thrillers, perfect for fans of John le Carré and Alan Furst.

British agent Richard Prince and the Danish spy Hanne Jakobsen come together for a vital mission: to find a Nazi war criminal responsible for the murder of fellow British agents. The hunt takes them on a perilous journey through Europe, a continent living on its nerves in the immediate aftermath of the Second World War. They unearth a secret Nazi escape line funded by British traitors - and it’s one which could lead them to Hitler’s trusted deputy, Martin Bormann But when the Americans become involved, it is no longer certain who’s on which side. Help might come in unlikely places. Can justice be found against the odds...or are they too late?

Twists and turns galore

That says a lot for the story and the telling of it. Brilliant writing and narration. Had some trouble with so many characters. I really hope this isn’t the end of this spy couple’s story.

Worth conclusion to a great spy series

Alex Gerlis wrote a worthy concluding volume to his World War 2 spy series, Prince of Spies. I enjoyed this book, but loved the series as a whole. This book wasn’t quite as good as number 3 in the series, but I did like it. It dealt with the aftermath of the war and Nazi officials who were taking a hidden route to escape Germany. This is a real-life topic in history that really interests me, but it did fall slightly flat in this book. As a whole, it did seem that Prince played less of a part in this book than in the other books in the series, so I was a little disappointed by that. Still I did enjoy it a lot. Alex Gerlis remains my favorite spy writer, and Rupert Bush is a fantastic narrator.
