About The Book

<p><strong>Stortorget Square Stockholm 1945.</strong></p><p>In a side street Peter waited near the car with Evdokia dressed in a grey raincoat. Her head was covered with a black cloth bag. A car stopped on the opposite side of the square. Two men emerged. Peter recognized one of them as the NKVD head of station Major Vladimir Petrov in a business suit and a fedora. He led the way followed by a second man wearing a workman's cap over his white hair. The hand-off was to happen in the middle of the square. Evdokia stumbled badly on the cobblestones in her heels as Peter brought up his Webley revolver to show the Russians he was taking no chances.</p><p>Mr Faye.
