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.”
