In southern France in 1944, Captain Billy Boyle works with French Resistance fighters to protect a Royal Navy Commander, uncovering a wide web of subterfuge and betrayal in the process.

Southern France, 1944: What should be a simple assignment with a Special Operations Executive officer gets complicated quickly as Billy navigates the tensions between Resistance groups in the process of gathering information on Vichy officials and other collaborators who escaped with the retreating Germans. Unexpectedly, the SOE officer has many enemies in the Resistance, linked to the failed Vercors uprising. Diana Seaton, Billy’s wartime lover, crosses paths with him as she and legendary SOE agent Christine Granville embark on a humanitarian mission on behalf of those killed while helping the SOE.

The search for a witness to a deadly explosion leads Billy to the legendary 442nd Regimental Combat Team, a unit made up of Nisei soldiers that became the most highly decorated unit in the history of the US Army.

With sacrifice and betrayal afoot, Billy doesn’t know who he can trust, or how close to death this case may bring him.

This is a well researched, well written mystery with an excellent narrator. Our intrepid hero once more goes in search of the truth and in the process witnesses some of the most notable events of WW2. You get a real sense of time and place while the author tells it as it was, injustices and all, not as it was presented at the time. The plot is gripping and fast paced. As always Billy is supported by a returning cast of familiar faces. Always sorry to get to the end of one of these tales but the ending is very satisfying.

My one gripe is the number of missing books. Mainly from the start of the series but several recent ones. Such a shame especially for those of us who can np longer read comfortably.

So pleased Billy is back
