About this listen

In the gripping new spy thriller from the Sunday Times bestselling author of Hitler's Secret, a Cambridge spy must unravel a dangerous mystery that goes all the way to the heart of the Third Reich—and the British Monarchy.

Sweden, 1942—Two old friends meet. They are cousins. One is Prince George, Duke of Kent, brother of the King of England. The other is Prince Philipp von Hessen, a committed Nazi and close friend of Adolf Hitler.

Days later, the Prince George is killed in a plane crash in the north of Scotland. The official story is that it was an accident—but not everyone is convinced.

There is even a suggestion that the Duke's plane was sabotaged, but with no evidence, Cambridge spy Tom Wilde is sent north to discover the truth . . .

Dramatic, intelligent, and brilliantly compelling, A PRINCE AND A SPY is Rory's best WWII thriller yet—perfect for fans of Robert Harris, C J Sansom and Joseph Kanon.

I have now read the whole series. They are well researched and written. The background is well described and fits in with the time. Very very good listening and thought provoking.

I think this is now my 4th Rory Clements story featuring Prof Tom Wilde. It hasn’t let me down! With no spoilers, the story traverses WW2, spies, plots, beautiful women, old boys’ clubs and much, much more. As ever, the characters are engaging and I found myself on the edge when some looked to be in potential danger.

The plot is fast paced but not at all confusing so you won’t find yourself lost at all.

As a very amateur historian, I love the fact that these books are thoroughly doused with real historical tales, even if they are adapted for the story. It brings an extra dimension to what you’re reading.

Adam Sims is one of my favourite narrators and I’ve found myself searching for others he reads - the perfect voice!

So please, don’t hesitate to add this to your wish list or library. You don’t regret it!
