Lisbon 1944. The baking summer streets of the capital seethe with spies and informers, and the endgame of the intelligence war is silently being fought. The Germans have rocket technology and atomic know-how. The Allies are determined that the ultimate "secret weapon" will not be realised. Into this sophisticated world come Andrea Aspinall, mathematician and spy, and Karl Voss, a traumatised German military attache on a mission to save his country from annihilation. In this corrupted paradise, Andrea and Voss attempt to find love. After a night of terrible violence Andrea is left with a secret which provokes a lifelong addiction to the clandestine world, from the brutal Portuguese fascist regime to the paranoia of Cold War Germany. And there, in an ice-gripped East Berlin, she discovers that the deepest secrets are held not by governments but by those closest to you.
