A RACE AGAINST TIME TO UNCOVER A SINISTER PLOT IN WORLD WAR II. The D-Day Invasion of Normandy in June 1944 kindled a flicker of hope in war-torn Europe that the war would be over by Christmas of that year. At this turning point of history, Richard Thorne, a veteran agent with Churchill’s Secret Army, is responsible for gathering intelligence on the German war machine prior to the final Allied assault against the Third Reich.
Behind enemy lines, Thorne has become something of a legend, his continued survival not merely a product of good fortune, but of his unparalleled skill in dodging the ever-watchful eye of the German authorities. Yet, it was amidst the chaos of the ensuing onslaught, operating alongside his steadfast companion Anna Larsen, a Dutch Resistance partisan, that Thorne’s greatest challenge would emerge. A shadow within their ranks, a traitor, threatens the entire upcoming Allied offensive against Nazi-occupied Holland.
Forced to choose between the obligations of his duty versus the dictates of his heart, Thorne follows a path fraught with danger, ignoring orders to dismiss what his superiors view as mere whispers of conspiracy. Time is of the essence as Thorne faces an agonizing decision to secure the success of his mission that could change the course of the war or to save the woman whose spirit has become intertwined with his own.
The Blackbird Conspiracy is a masterfully crafted spy-thriller sure to please fans of Ken Follett, Ian Fleming, and Alan Furst!
