Product Description
In the flamboyant Twenties, Englishman William Grover-Williams and Frenchman Robert Benoist were fierce rivals racing their elegant Bugattis on the glittering European race circuits. Not only is the World Championship in their sights, but they have both fallen for the sensuous charms of the extravagantly beautiful Eve Aubicq. But when war breaks out, everything changes. Paris is in the iron-grip of German occupation and Robert and William join the Special Operations Executive to help the French Resistance undermine the brutal occupying regime. Their missions involve utmost courage and daring in the face of the horrors of war. Based on a true story of British covert activity and the French Resistance during the Second World War, this is a gripping novel of heroism, self-sacrifice, love and betrayal.

Robert Ryan- Early One Morning
Some war secrets don't or can't stay hidden, even in the icy depths of an Austrian lake. This compelling story, with real-life characters, flows from intense competition on the 1920s race- tracks through lasting friendships and relationships to the outbreak and despair of WW2. A moral compass that has to balance survival with not standing silent.
