Summary Note |
Sweden, 1942 - Two old friends meet. They are cousins. One is Prince George, Duke of Kent, brother of the King of England. The other is Prince Philipp von Hesse, a committed Nazi and close friend of Adolf Hitler. Days later, the Prince George is killed in a plane crash in the north of Scotland. The official story is that it was an accident - but not everyone is convinced. There is even a suggestion that the Duke's plane was sabotaged in reprisal for Britain's role in the assassination of Reinhard Heydrich earlier in the summer. And Tom Wilde, a Cambridge spy, is sent north to discover the truth... |
