Young Canadian journalist George Hogan, protégé of Lord Beaverbrook, faces a crucial assignment that will test him to breaking point. And Abwehr intelligence officer Wilhilm Schultz is baiting a trap to lure thousands of Allied troops to their deaths... Three lives linked by Operation Jubilee: the Dieppe Raid, 19 August 1942.
