London, 1944. While the Luftwaffe makes its final assault on the already battered British capital, Londoners rush through the streets, seeking underground shelter in the midst of the city's blackout. When the panic subsides, other things begin to surface along with London's war-worn citizens. A severed arm is discovered by a group of children playing at an East End bomb site, and when Scotland Yard's Detective Sergeant Frederick Troy arrives at the scene, it becomes apparent that the dismembered body is not the work of a V-1 rocket.
After Troy manages to link the severed arm to the disappearance of a refugee scientist from Nazi Germany, America's newest intelligence agency, the OSS, decides to get involved. The son of a titled Russian émigré, Troy is forced to leave the London he knows and enter a corrupt world of bloody consequences, stateless refugees, and mysterious women as he unearths a chain of secrets leading straight to the Allied high command.

The narrator was a little shaky at first, which is why there's only 4 stars, but his character voices are excellent. So easy to tell who was talking and very entertaining.
Great narrator, story needed trimming

The sexual encounters with women are not subtle—something to keep in mind, depending on who else is around when you are listening. (These just happen now and then in the book.) While I don’t believe everyone would have had these sorts of experiences, they are believable. I would imagine that during wartime some people would be less reserved.
Great start to series
