Hampshire, 1943. SOE agent Kim Maxwell has been confined to administrative work after capture and torture in occupied France, and she regards the posting as punishment rather than protection. The murder of fellow agent Lilian Harvey gives Kim a chance to return to active investigation. A zigzag mark drawn in the victim’s blood suggests that Lilian discovered a clandestine organisation operating inside Britain.
Kim joins the enigmatic Roland, known as Red Fox, to trace the conspiracy from an English training establishment back into enemy territory. Their attraction complicates a mission involving false identities, compromised agents and a drug dealer financing terrorist operations. To expose the network, Kim must re-enter the country where she was captured and use the experience that has made her commanders doubt whether she is ready to serve.
