From the master of international suspense comes a tense and powerful thriller based on actual World War II events that follows two unlikely allies in a desperate race to stop the perfect assassination.
 
The year: 1939 -- and the world is readying itself for war that is sure to come. 
 
The conspirators: A group of powerful men who want to keep America out of the approaching conflict -- at all costs.
 
The plan: Assassinate the King and Queen of England on American soil, destroying any hope of an alliance between Great Britain and the United States -- and ensuring victory for the Nazis in World War II. 
 
Praise for Christopher Hyde

“Up to the minute suspense . . . like Caleb Carr meets Frederick Forsyth.” -- Lee Child, bestselling author of Echo Burning
