When the shadow of WW 2 descends, a single cry in the night ignites an intrigue that could alter the fate of nations.
While Europe teeters on the brink of annihilation, a new mother is praying for a peaceful future, another cradles a legacy for the Third Reich. In the dead of night their stories converge; one child is snatched, one spirited away; the only clue-a chilling silence.
Into the viper's nest steps DI Hector Parson (Ret). Haunted, yet relentless, he seeks to unravel a deception so profound it threatens the very fabric of the free world. Operation Judas Goat is handed to him with one caveat; do not disclose your target.
Drawn into a labyrinth of whispers, betrayal and unspoken loyalties he uncovers the Mitford family at its centre. Every door he opens reveals a deeper darkness, every witness bound by a vow of silence.
Through the darkest days of human history, where truth is a weapon and trust is the first casualty, one question remains: can Parson overcome his own conflicts and expose the conspiracy before the innocent are sacrificed?
An exciting, alternative-history, World War II adventure - fascinating, deeply researched and, finally, moving.Greg Mosse
Following a career in equality law, Daisy Line, crime author, book festival creative director and recently debut playwright, moved back home from the Middle East with her husband and dog Hastings.
Alongside working on golden age crime fiction, Daisy divides her life between Norfolk and Oxfordshire, enjoying spending time with her many grandchildren, her sister on research adventures in Mawd the camper van and, of course, reading aging copies of old crime titles found in the dusty corners of secondhand bookshops.
