'I'm transfixed by the scenes of Nazi party dignitaries and the Berlin glitterati stomping the snow from their boots, as they gather for a decadent winter ball to celebrate how the Blitzkrieg - the lightning war - has crushed Poland, with most of Western Europe set to follow. Pivotal moments in history; utterly authentic characters; a gripping plot. The perfect way to bring history alive.' - Damian Lewis

'A perilous world where high society, low desire, and suspected espionage intersect with infighting among the Hitler regime's power-hungry elite . . . A genuine page-turner.' - Frederick Taylor
