Wow ! What a thoroughly satisfying read. If you enjoy WWII spy/adventure books in the vein of Ken Follett you gotta read this one. Tight, believable plotting and good writing. You just don't want to go to bed till you read the next chapter - and then the next. I was particularly struck by the believable characters, Most books of this period portray the Germans as cardboard sterotype orges. Here they are real and their actions are understandable. The British are mild university types in tweeds and brier pipes. I know a few of these "double cross" people right after the war and this is exactly what they were. In all, I was delighted with the book, cannot wait for more and highly recommend it.
