Book Synopsis
The true story of the Englishman allegedly freed from a French prison after meeting John Amery, the treacherous son of a Cabinet minister, and sent back to Britain to spy - only to be caught, prosecuted and hanged for being a traitor to his country. But this 'spy' always claimed to have simply lied in order to come home. Was he telling the truth?

Trade Review
'A model of assiduous research. No stone left unturned to reach the truth about a squalid, but not unimportant, case of wartime treachery and disloyalty, mixed in with very human frailty and tragic misjudgement.' -- Nigel West
