Autumn 1945 - Off the east coast of England, a Japanese sub surfaces, unloads its mysterious cargo, then blows itself to pieces.
Former spy Professor Tom Wilde is enjoying peacetime in Cambridge, settling back into teaching and family life. Until a call from senior MI5 boss Lord Templeman brings him out of retirement.
A nearby village has been locked down by the military, its residents blighted by a deadly illness. No one is allowed in or out.
There are rumours the Nazi machine is still operational, with links to Unit 731, a notorious Japanese biological warfare research laboratory. But how could they possibly be plotting on British soil - and why?
What's more, Wilde and Templeman's names are discovered on a Gestapo kill list. And after a series of assassinations an unthinkable question emerges: could an Englishman be behind the plot?
Determined to become a writer, Rory Clements forged a career as a journalist, progressing from local newspapers to Fleet Street. He was an associate editor at Today newspaper until its demise in 1995, followed by stints as Health Editor at the Daily Mail and Evening Standard.
Since 2007, Rory has been writing full-time in a quiet corner of Norfolk, England, winning the CWA Ellis Peters Historical Award in 2010 for his second novel, Revenger, and again in 2018 for his eighth novel Nucleus. Three other novels - Martyr, Prince and The Heretics - have all been shortlisted for awards.
