＂Deighton’s best book . . . an absorbingly exciting spy story that is also a fascinating exercise in might-have-been speculation.＂--The New York Times Book Review

It is 1941 and Germany has won the war. Britain is occupied, Churchill executed, and the King imprisoned in the Tower of London. At Scotland Yard, Detective Inspector Archer tries to do his job and keep his head down. But when a body is found in a Mayfair flat, what at first appears to be a routine murder investigation sends him into a world of espionage, deceit, and betrayal.

LEN DEIGHTON is considered one of the most important British espionage writers. He has written more than thirty books that range from historical
fiction, dystopian alternative fiction, and brilliant nonfiction on the Second World War.
