Dates back to 2nd World War at a time when Germany is at its destructive best. Stephen Metcalfe, a skilful spy (of course,a womaniser too) has to travel to Stalin-controlled Moscow to execute a deadly task to settle freedom on Earth from The Third Reich. As he loses his pals to the combined force of Gestapo & NKVD, and as he is forced to betray his own sweetheart, Stephen's conscience takes a beating. Yet he must strive hard to make the trap set by his mentor work..A trap set for Adolf Hitler himself !!

This is a great read, a real Ludlum classic espionage thriller, I read this when it was first published and I've just re-read it, much of it had stayed with me, but it surprisied me how much of the story I'd forgotten, especially the last few chapters and the bombshell of a twist at the end! I recommend this book highly.
