Resumen del Editor

With the end of the Second World War in sight, the Allies begin to divide up the spoils and it proves to be a dangerous game. The British have become aware that, contrary to what's been agreed, the Soviet Union is intent on controlling Austria once the Second World War ends. And Major Edgar is given the job of establishing an espionage unit in Vienna. He sends in a married Swiss couple - Rolf Eder and Katharina Hoch - who, in fact, have only met each other a week before their journey. Their job is to track down Austria's most respected politician - in hiding from the Nazis - and bring him over to the British cause. But the feared Soviet spy Viktor Krasotkin is already in the wartorn city, embarking on exactly the same mission.

A taut, tense masterclass in espionage fiction from the author of The Best of Our Spies and The Swiss Spy, the new novel by Alex Gerlis takes place in a fiercely pro-Nazi city in the final months of the Second World War - a place where the Wehrmacht patrol the streets and the Gestapo rule unchecked. As the former Austrian capital faces the onslaught of the Allies from one side and the Red Army from the other, it provides an unforgettable backdrop to a chess-like game of oneupmanship and political ideology.

Great Story Wooden Narrator

The story is excellent but the narrator had little breadth of emotion and it was hard to tell characters apart. In spite of this, I would recommend.

The amusing American accents were distracting

From an otherwise excellent performance of an extraordinary spy story. I thoroughly enjoyed listening to it.

Excellent spy novel

Good book with several different interesting plot strands that all come together. Good British narration, too.

This was an awful book...

Having LOVED the Best of Our Spies, I started this book with excited anticipation.. what a dreadful disappointment.. the story was so far fetched, the characters so ridiculous and the narration with intonation in all the wrong places.
One final point: the narrator use the term “Jew” in a pejorative way, which I found quite insulting.

not the best but I finished it.

Alex Gerlis has a story telling style that bridges the span of journalism/documentary with real time narrative contemporaneous to the era. This story took 10 hours to construct and three hours of "get on with it" then the happy reunion. meh.

Hard to follow

Very difficult to figure who is who and what’s really going on. The accents didn’t help
