Samenvatting:

Was it pure coincidence that General Sikorski, the Polish Prime Minister in Exile, and Igor Maisky, the Russian Foreign Minister, landed on the same day in Gibraltar and spent the night in separate wings of the Governor’s Residence? And, in view of the Allies’ ready ability to crack the German military codes, were they really taken totally by surprise by the last-ditch German counter-attack through the Ardennes Forest?These and other fascinating conundrums are explored in this exciting tale of intrigue, espionage, torture, loyalty, betrayal and retribution. Will Fenn’s first foray into non-fiction, based on true events, tries to answer some of the questions. Whilst many of the characters are based on real people, names have been changed where necessary.
