Description
In July 1940, England's focus on its borders left vulnerable targets elsewhere. Hitler saw an opportunity to carry out an audacious plot that would change the course of the war. His intention was to kidnap the Duke of Windsor, brother to King George VI and former ruler of the United Kingdom in his own right, and hold him for ransom. The ultimate leverage against a beleaguered British government would be at stake, but could it really be done? The German secret services were searching for an audacious operative willing to set a trap to catch a king. This gripping tale of espionage and suspense explores the intricate web of intrigue that unfolded during one of history's most pivotal moments. With 304 pages, this paperback edition brings to life the tense atmosphere of wartime England, where loyalty, deception, and survival were constantly at stake.
