Summary
From the author of the 2018 CWA historical dagger, Nucleus.
Can a ruthless spy ring change the course of war?
In a great English house, a young woman offers herself to one of the most powerful and influential figures in the land - but this is no ordinary seduction. She plans to ensure his death....
On holiday in France, Professor Tom Wilde discovers his brilliant student Marcus Marfield, who disappeared two years earlier to join the International Brigades in Spain, in the Le Vernet concentration camp in the foothills of the Pyrenees. Wilde secures his release just as German tanks roll into Poland.
Meanwhile, a U-boat sinks the liner Athenia in the Atlantic with many casualties, including Americans, onboard. Goebbels claims Churchill put a bomb in the ship to blame Germany and to lure America into the war.
As the various strands of an international conspiracy begin to unwind, Tom Wilde will find himself in great personal danger. For just who is Marcus Marfield? And where does his loyalty lie?
For listeners of Robert Harris, C J Sansom and William Boyd, this is a thriller that will keep you on the edge of your seat - by Sunday Times best seller and author of Corpus and Nucleus, Rory Clements.

Never a dull page
I can now add three books by Rory Clements to my library. They are stories I cannot put down, I listen to them whenever and wherever I can. Thrilling, daring, keeping you hanging in excitement. I love the historical connections and the vivid descriptive content. Brilliant series. Thank you

Fantastic listen
The Tom Wilde series has been really enjoyable, particularly for a Cambridgeshire local like myself. The perspective of an American in Britain during early war time is a fascinating one. Nemesis has been the best in the series so far. Looking forward to the next one!

Gripping story
Well narrated and compelling story that shines a light on the atmosphere in immediately pre-war England as a backdrop to a great thriller with twists and turns mixes in.

Lost in another world
This the third book in the series was as the other a delight. It’s rare one is immersed in a story to the extent that one does not want to come up for air. I got lost in this story and can only hope number four is in full development.
I have enjoyed many of Rory’s books in the past but now have quite captured me like these.
Mr Clements, please get writing.
The performance of Adam Sims is excellent, his voice differential between characters is spot on. I hope this partnership continues as the series DV continues.

Good Read
This is the first book i have heard in the series. I was unsure what to expect following the Shakespeare series but I wasn't disappointed. Looking forward to Corpus and Nucleus, many thanks Rory Clements

Well researched and intricately entangled.
This was my first Rory Clements book and it was very enjoyable. He weaves the atmosphere of the early war years very well and has written a complex story around historic facts. The whole tone of the book is very different to novels set in current times. It has a calmer, less frantic effect. Details of crimes, evidence, forensics and the almost casual way of exchanging information between interested parties, are very different and almost jarring compared to modern police procedure. But this adds to the overall charm of the book. It’s also easy to imagine that this kind of thing could happen pre WWII, but would be frowned upon today. All in all, although the story is quite gritty in places, I came away feeling that it was a gentle listen.
