A special 10th anniversary edition of the haunting, standalone novel from the bestselling author of the Shardlake series, C. J. Sansom.
The year is 1940 - the Spanish Civil War is over, and Madrid lies ruined, its people starving, while the Germans continue their relentless march through Europe. Into this uncertain world comes Harry Brett: ex-public schoolboy, traumatised veteran of Dunkirk and, now, reluctant spy for the British Secret Service.
