France, July 1944: In the Pas de Calais, Nathalie Mercier, a young British special operations executive secret agent working with the French Resistance, disappears.

In London her husband, Owen Quinn, an officer with Royal Navy Intelligence, sets off on a perilous hunt through France in search of his wife. With the help of the Resistance, he finds Nathalie, but then the bitterness of war and its insatiable appetite for revenge catch up with them in a dramatic fashion.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book.
A number of times I went back a few chapters to listen again as there was so much going on I needed to clarify my understanding.
Highly recommend; I was sorry when it came to an end.
