What to expect
To live among wolves, first you must become one An unmissable new spy thriller from best-selling master of the genre, Alex Gerlis.
War is coming to Europe.
British spymaster Barnaby Allen begins recruiting a network of agents in Germany. With diplomatic relations quickly unravelling, this pack of spies soon comes into their own: the horse-loving German at home in Berlin's underground; the young American sports journalist; the mysterious Luftwaffe officer; the Japanese diplomat and the most unlikely one of all... the SS officer's wife.
Despite constant danger and the ever-present threats of discovery and betrayal, Allen's network unearths top-secret plans for a new German fighter plane and a truly devastating intelligence prize... an audacious Japanese plan to attack the United States. But can they prove it?
The race is on.

User Reviews
The characters are believable with each one connecting to another in a way which seems perfectly natural.
The fact some are captured makes the plot more realistic and you can feel the tension building time after time, no James Bond type escapades here.
A great listen .
