At his research clinic in Boston, renowned specialist Jake Foster uncovers the terrifying secret behind the city's rapidly rising infertility rate. Meanwhile in a nearby ER, his wife, Dr. Brett Foster, unsuccessfully tries to save a young man with no visible injuries from bleeding to death -- the fifth such fatality in a week. Working together to find answers, Jake and Brett discover that the two epidemics stem from the same diabolical source. And now they will risk everything to expose a sinister plot that could claim thousands of lives ... starting with their own.
'A masterpiece of spies, intrigue and political shenanigans' Sunday
Express Can a ruthless spy ring change the course of the war? The
Sunday Times bestseller and award-winning author of Corpus returns
with a gripping tale of spies, intrigue and politics set during
WW2. Perfect for readers of Robert Harris, C J Sansom and Joseph
Kanon. 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? A brilliantly
intelligent, gripping WW2 spy thriller from the Sunday Times
bestselling author of Corpus. _____________________________ Praise
