With Churchill executed, the King imprisoned, and the SS in control of Scotland Yard, Detective Douglas Archer, investigating an apparently routine murder, finds himself plunged into a brutal espionage battle.
"In February 1941, British Command surrendered to the Nazis. Churchill has been executed, the King is in the tower and the SS are in Whitehall. This is a spy story quite different from any other. Only Deighton, with his flair for historical research and his narrative genius could have written it."
"In het door de Duitsers in 1941 bezette Londen raakt een detective van Scotland Yard verstrikt in een warnet van intriges bij zijn onderzoek naar een moord."

"What if WWII went the other way? In this alternative-history novel, Deighton imagines a chilling world where British Command surrendered to the Nazis in 1941, Churchill has been shot, the King is in the dungeon, and the SS are in Whitehall. In occupied Britain, Scotland Yard conducts business as usual ... only under the command of the SS. Detective Inspector Archer is assigned to what he believes is a routine murder case--until SS Standartenführer Huth arrives from Berlin with orders from Himmler himself to supervise the investigation. Soon, Archer finds himself caught in a high level, action-packed espionage battle. This is a spy story different from any other--one that only Deighton, with his flair for historical research and his narrative genius, could have written."@en
