– Bokens handling finner sted under annen verdenskrig. Henry Faber er Tysklands beste spion. Hans oppdrag er å finne ut de aliertes plan for D-dagen og få dem til Tyskland for enhver pris. Han er en kald og hensynsløs mann, men så kommer han til Storm Island og møter Lucy... Ken Follet fanger leserne fra første side, på slutten av boka føler du at du virkelig kjenner Henry, Lucy og de andre personene. Denne boken har alt, spenning, intriger og en veldig farlig spion. Dersom du liker spion romaner er dette en bok du absolutt ikke bør gå glipp av. Jeg annbefaler boken på det varmeste!
