Spies of Jerusalem
Colin Smith
Quote:
Palestine, 1917.
A land of conflict. And a land of spies.
As World War One rages on the killing fields of Flanders, another battle is playing out in the Holy Land.
British forces invade a stronghold of the Ottoman Empire, fighting German officers, Arab conscripts and Turkish troops.
But as the British armies advance, the Germans suspect they have a traitor within their ranks.
An agent - code-named Daniel - is transmitting messages to the British from the heart of the German headquarters.
If they can't stop him, the war will be lost.
But as the Germans dig deeper, they discover an espionage ring called Nili
made up of Zionist Jews supporting the British.
They begin close in on the ring.
But will they ever unearth the true identity of Daniel?
And what is the true purpose of the organisation known as Nili?
In this gripping novel, Colin Smith interweaves the stories of British Tommies, German officers and Jewish nationals.
In a tale of intrigue and espionage the hunt for Daniel turns into a race against time, as the British prepare to meet the Austrian troops on the brutal battlefield at Huj.
'Spies of Jerusalem' brilliantly blends fact with fiction in a novel that will appeal to fans of Alan Furst and and John Le Carre.
