Codename Lazarus on NetGalley
Hi everyone, my debut Second World War spy thriller CODENAME LAZARUS by A P MARTIN is now available on NetGalley under Historical Fiction and General Fiction (adult) . Please take a look, if the genre interests you!
Spring 1938 and Britain's back is up against the wall.
War with Germany is looming and hundreds of British citizens are eager to pass on information to help the Nazi cause. John King, a young academic, is approached by his Oxbridge mentor to participate in a stunning deception that would frustrate Britain's enemies. The novice spy must learn to survive in a dangerous and lonely no man's land, whilst remaining one step ahead of those in hot pursuit.
"Suddenly, and without warning, King seized his chance to jump quickly into the last available cab. The man in the grey overcoat was taken completely by surprise and, as no other taxi was available, he had no means to follow. King smiled triumphantly at the sight of him, staring angrily at the back of the cab as it sped away through the thickening snow."
Adapted from a true story, Codename Lazarus takes the reader on a journey from the dark heart of Hitler’s Germany, across the snowy peaks of Switzerland to the horrors of Dunkirk, The Battle of Britain and The London Blitz, before reaching a thrilling and decisive conclusion from which none emerge unscathed.
“Great book, well written. I really hope there is another that follows on. “
“This book is hard to put down once you start reading it. The story is interesting and there are a lot of surprises that keep you guessing.”
“Captures the atmosphere of that era. The dialogue is extremely believable.”
