Shadows of War just published

Shadows of War by Michael Ridpath

After many months of hard research, and a year of enjoyable writing, I am very pleased to announce that my latest novel has just been published. The title is Shadows of War and it is a Second World War spy thriller – a sequel to Traitor’s Gate.

We all know that the Duke of Windsor was a Nazi sympathizer, but we don’t know what he actually did during the Second World War to help the Nazis. Historians can’t tell us because the evidence has either been destroyed or locked up in the Royal Archives. In Shadows of War I suggest what he might have done.

October, 1939: War has been declared, but until the armies massed on either side of the French-German border engage, all is quiet on the Western Front.

But there are those who believe the war no one wants to fight should be brought to a swift conclusion, even if it means treachery.

In 1938, Conrad de Lancey came within seconds of assassinating Hitler. Now the British Secret Service want him to go back into Europe and make contact with a group of German officers they believe are plotting a coup.

But this is the Shadow War, and the shadows are multiplying. It's not only disaffected Germans who are prepared to betray their country to save it...

You can buy Shadows of War on Kindle from amazon.co.uk

If you want a signed copy of the hardback, you can contact either Goldsboro Books (020 7497 9230 email enquiries@goldsborobooks.com) or Joseph’s Bookstore, my local bookshop, (020 8731 7575 info@jospehsbookstore.com). I think both shops will ship overseas.

I am told that Shadows of War will be available in the US on Kindle on 9th September.

Lastly, if you do buy and read the book, a review on amazon really helps (as well as goodreads, of course)
