Betrayal - Tapa blanda

"While the plot twists and personal motivations are very dark, Janes also creates a sympathetic angle to most of his characters, which will appeal to readers not normally interested in such deep political intrigue or the thriller genre." -Historical Novel Society "[Janes has a] sure grasp of period detail and [a] seamless way of mixing fact and fiction." -Booklist "A master of the psychological thriller." -Midwest Book Review "Janes has effectively recreated a period of French history that is usually unacknowledged or swept under the rug. Original and gripping." -The Drood Review of Mystery

Caught between empires, a young woman risks her life for Ireland

Mary Ellen Fraser speeds down the lonely country road, aware that no matter how fast she drives, she cannot outrun the secret in her heart. In the POW camps of Northern Ireland, this doctor’s wife found a lover—a handsome German officer who begged her to smuggle a letter to his cousin. But the cousin is a lie, and the note is really an encoded message for Admiral Dönitz, high commander of the Nazi fleet. Not only has Mary betrayed her husband, she has betrayed Britain, as well.

When she discovers the consequences of her unwitting bit of espionage, Mary does everything she can to undo the damage. Trapped between Britain, Germany, and the merciless Irish Republican Army, Mary is the only person who can keep the Nazis from landing in Ireland.
