"Torn apart by war, Saffron Courtney and Gerhard von Meerbach are thousands of miles apart, both struggling for their lives. Gerhard, despite his loathing of the Nazi regime, is fighting for the Fatherland, hoping one day to rid Germany of Hitler and his cronies. But as his unit is thrown into the hellish attrition of the Battle of Stalingrad, his chances of survival are dwindling by the day. Saffron, recruited by the Special Operations Executive, and sent to occupied Belgium to discover the traitor within the Allied networks, soon finds herself being hunted by Germany's most ruthless spymaster. Confronted by evil beyond their worst imaginings, the lovers face an impossible choice: sacrifice themselves, or do whatever they can to survive, hoping that one day they will be reunited"--Provided by publisher.
