Summary
A thrilling World War One spy story from the author of the acclaimed Jack Haldean series.
"There's a spy in England. Frankie's letter. Read Frankie's letter...." The last words said by a dying man to Anthony Brooke in Kiel in Germany during the height of World War One. But who is Frankie?< /p>
With his cover blown and the German army at his heels, English secret agent Anthony Brooke's search to discover the truth leads him to an innocent-seeming country house. Here, deep within the English countryside, as Anthony uncovers a web of spies, treachery and terrorists, the war becomes close and very personal.

gentle period tale
old style spy story. very well and gently read in keeping with the times. not modern so no depiction of gore and characters are as I remember from stories of my young self some many years ago. a delight.

Too rediculous
beaten up every other chapter, shot, drugged, fisticuffs. overpowering all assailants no matter how many. Gets to be irritating so unrealistic.

old fashioned tale of daring do
Oldfashioned story of daring do, with a side order of romance. a non challenging way to while away the hours.

Old fashioned action!
A very old fashioned tale, and all the better for it! Highly enjoyable, well paced & with lots of good characters. The narration was second to none, and he even managed to do a Belfast accent without making this Belfast fella not cringe too much!
You can spot the twists coming, so if you’re into complex mystery solving you may be disappointed, but as good clean entertainment it’s enjoyable.

Perfect narrator
I wrote the book and couldn’t wish for a better narrator. David Thorpe has an incredible range of expressions and voices. Just perfect

Excellent spy mystery
This novel was so good that I was sorry when it was over. I definitely want to read/hear more books by this author. The narrator was excellent, convincingly acting all the voices, all the accents, both male and female. Sound quality was also excellent. I was very pleased that this novel contains no sex, no bad language, and no weird ideas. There was very little violence. A good traditional mystery with a likeable hero you can identify with and admire.
