Acerca de esta escucha
France, July 1944: a month after the Allied landings in Normandy, and the liberation of Europe is underway. In the Pas-de-Calais, Nathalie Mercier, a young British Special Operations executive secret agent working with the French Resistance, disappears. In London, her husband, Owen Quinn, an officer with Royal Navy Intelligence, discovers the truth about her role in the Allies' sophisticated deception at the heart of D-Day. Appalled but determined, Owen sets off on a perilous hunt through France in search of his wife. With the help of the Resistance, he finds Nathalie, but then the bitterness of war and its insatiable appetite for revenge catch up with them in dramatic fashion. Based on real events of the Second World War, The Best of Our Spies is a thrilling tale of international intrigue, love, deception, and espionage.

D-Day marked the start of the Battle for Normandy, which in turn led to the liberation of Nazi-occupied Europe and the defeat of Germany. Although it is seen as an unqualified success, the Battle for Normandy was a much more closely fought affair. It wasn’t until the 1970s that details of the Allies' top-secret and audacious deception plan emerged.

Berlin, 1963. An early morning spy swap, not at the familiar setting for such exchanges, nor at Checkpoint Charlie, where international visitors cross into the East, but at a more discreet border crossing, usually reserved for East German VIPs. The Communists are trading two American students caught helping people to escape over the wall and an aging MI6 operative. On the other side of the trade: Martin Keller, a physicist who once made headlines, but who then disappeared into the English prison system.

Paris in 1895: Alfred Dreyfus, a young Jewish officer, has just been convicted of treason, sentenced to life imprisonment at Devil's Island, and stripped of his rank in front of a baying crowd of 20,000. Among the witnesses to his humiliation is Georges Picquart, the ambitious, intellectual, recently promoted head of the counterespionage agency that Dreyfus had passed secrets to the Germans. At first, Picquart firmly believes in Dreyfus' guilt. But it is not long after Dreyfus is delivered to his desolate prison that Picquart stumbles on information that leads him to suspect that there is still a spy at large in the French military.

“In wartime,” Winston Churchill wrote, “truth is so precious that she should always be attended by a bodyguard of lies.” For Britain’s counterintelligence operations, this meant finding the unlikeliest agent imaginable - a history professor named Alfred Vicary, handpicked by Churchill himself to expose a highly dangerous, but unknown, traitor. The Nazis, however, have also chosen an unlikely agent.

As the war came to a close, Schramm was one of the many high-ranking former-Nazi officers who managed to escape Germany for new lives in South America, where leaders like Argentina’s Juan Perón gave them safe harbor and new identities.

Assigned to the case is military intelligence officer Captain Gregor Reinhardt.

The world is on the brink of crisis. The Cold War is playing out once more on the global stage. And governments will do whatever it takes to stay at the top. To those who don't really know her, Kate Henderson's life must seem perfectly ordinary. But she is in fact a senior MI6 officer, who right now is nursing the political equivalent of a nuclear bomb. Kate's most recent mission has yielded the startling intelligence that the British Prime Minister has cancer - and that one of the leading candidates to replace him may be a Russian agent of influence.

Historia
A hyper-fast quantum computer is the digital equivalent of a nuclear bomb: whoever possesses one will be able to shred any encryption in existence, effectively owning the digital world. The question is: Who will build it first, the United States or China? The latest of David Ignatius' timely, sharp-eyed espionage novels follows CIA agent Harris Chang into a quantum research lab compromised by a suspected Chinese informant. The breach provokes a mole hunt that is obsessive, destructive, and - above all - uncertain.

Graham Weber has been director of the CIA for less than a week when a Swiss kid in a dirty T-shirt walks into the American consulate in Hamburg and says the agency has been hacked, and he has a list of agents' names to prove it. This is the moment a CIA director most dreads. Weber isn' t sure where to turn until he meets a charismatic (and unstable) young man named James Morris who runs the Internet Operations Center.

Don't Pass up The Best if Our Spies!
I chose this book because it's a WWII spy story. We loved it! Great writing, that incorporated historical events to weave a story that keeps you engaged. Full character development and edge-of-your-seat plot twists. I didn't want it to end.

One of the best Historical Novels of WW II
This captivating historical novel created by an extremely talented author and read by an equally talented narrator is one of the best historical fiction I’ve ever read. Mr. Gerlis takes you on a journey full of suspense, intrigue, and espionage that I found hard to put down.

slow, muddled start
As narrator, John Lee made this book much more bearable to hear.He is one narrator who does not go over the top with 'period' accents. And those accents tend to take attention away from the writing. But while Lee was excellent, I thought that Gerlis made the plot too complicated, and that resulted in Gerlis reviewing the previous action. The female protagonist's seem confused, and while Gerlis explains the context for these confusing actions and thoughts, but I remain unconvinced as to what her character really is or how it has changed. In fact, I was not terribly impressed by any of the characterization, nor by a plot that borders on the implausible. Personally, I much prefer Furst and Kerr, or even John Lawton or Jonathan Rabb for that matter. Not a bad book, particularly with John Lee reading it, but not a satisfying book either.

Great narration, ok story.
Any additional comments?
John Lee is my favorite narrator, and is why I chose to listen to this book. His narration was excellent as always, and really brought these characters to life.
I like the premise of the story and the setting, and the characters were interesting and dynamic. However, the reader doesn't learn the wife's backstory until the end, which really leaves you wondering about her motive the whole time. I also was kind of bored, and am not sure why.
This was written well, contained great descriptions, and the performance was excellent. I just did not find it to be exceedingly engaging, and it did take me a long time to get through.

Wrong narrator
The narrator ruined it. have listened to other books and not been so bothered. But in this case, his mannerisms worked as deeply inappropriate affectations. I got to the end since I wanted to know who survived, but the moral and psychological complexity that I sense was the author’s goal was lost to me under the falseness of the reader.

You won't stop listening!
Superbly plotted- fabulous characters. Best narration I have heard. This one is a "sleeper" among WW II historical fiction and the spy genre.

This is one of the better WWII thrillers I have read in a long time. The story was compelling and gripping. The narrator was first rate. His ability to move between different accents, and characters was top-notch!
