Produktbeschreibung

The first adventure in the World War 2 Heidi Fuchs series.

FRANCE, May 1940 - The German Blitzkrieg thrusts deep into France - the French army is on the point of collapse. Amid the confusion a British Military Intelligence team are sent to snatch a missing radar part. It's a disaster, and the team's sole survivor, retired scientist Sir Freddy Villiers, is ordered home. But he reckons there's still a chance, and with help from alluring female Gendarme Martine Dumont, he could be right.

Unfortunately, German agent Heidi Fuchs has other ideas. She's cunning, she's dirty and she's utterly ruthless - Freddy's out of his league. But the fortunes of war are never straightforward and it seems there is more at stake than radar.

While the battle for France rages unchecked, the hunt gets increasingly personal, and Sir Freddy needs to answer one very basic question: Which comes first - the mission, or Martine?

"Pure entertainment, a memorably good read."

"Heidi - one of fiction's more engaging psychopaths, a great book - nail biting to the very last page. A top writer on top form." Carfax Reviews

Autorenporträt

Ian was for many years a ship's chandler, part of the fourth generation in his family business, supplying merchant vessels around the United Kingdom and north west Europe. Deciding that too much of his time was spent in travelling, and looking for a job which allowed more time for a home life, he set up a local business of his own; a registered firearms dealership.
However, although still fun, the gun shop has turned into a much busier operation than originally envisaged, and is now run by son Mike, with Ian relegated to the role of general dogsbody. He is also a commercially qualified pilot on medium sized twin engined aircraft.
Ian and his wife Margaret, another pilot, live in Cheshire, they have three grown up children and, so far, two grandchildren. For many years writing has been his hobby, resulting in about one book a year, although never with any thought of being published. It was only after taking part in a British Arts Council literary criticism website that his books found their way into print.
