It is 1961 and a time of crisis, as the great powers squabble over that symbol of a divided Europe—Berlin. Francis Bennett shows us how lies and deception have shaped the history of our continent, how a relatively small number of deeply cynical men and women have affected the lives of millions, and how—if a few idealists had been listened to—it all might have been very different. This is part of a sequence of novels tracing the history of the Cold War, which started with Making Enemies and continued with Secret Kingdom.
