Description
Billy Boyle's 14th mission takes him into the heart of Nazi-occupied Paris. In August 1944, US Army detective Billy Boyle is tasked with tracking down a French traitor known as Atlantik, who is delivering classified Allied plans to German leaders. The Resistance is also on his trail, seeking revenge for previous betrayals that led to the deaths of many of their members. The mission is complex: the traitor's actions are part of a deliberate deception campaign designed to obscure the Allied army's true intentions. Billy and his partner must navigate this delicate game, keeping close enough to spur the traitor on while remaining visible enough to ensure the Germans trust Atlantik. The outcome of the war may depend on their success. This tense historical mystery explores the cat-and-mouse game between spies, Resistance fighters, and Nazi officials in the final days of World War II.
