“Hurley directs his cast with verve, deploying his historical knowledge and research with just enough detail” -Financial Times

“A narrative brimming with shifting loyalties and hazardous espionage” -Sidmouth Herald

“The novel unfolds against one of the less-well-known episodes of the war, and Hurley manages to get a lot of information across while still providing an exciting narrative” -Literary Review

“Hurley expertly spins together the threads of fiction with historical fact” -Aspects of History

“People in Hurley's world don't always believe very passionately in their causes, but they always believe believably, and it's that, as much as the meticulous historical research, which makes his thrillers so absorbing.” -Morning Star
