Overview

London, 1946. The war that was promised never arrived, leaving the world strangled by the suffocating grip of a paralysing Cold Peace. Behind the glittering galas of the Savoy and the sterile corridors of Whitehall, the British Empire and the Greater German Reich are locked in a shadow war where the primary currency is secrets and the only law is survival. Ruth Foxx is the perfect instrument for such a world. A former archivist forged into a lethal operative in the brutal training grounds of the Scottish Highlands, she possesses a mechanical mind and a soul hollowed out by the requirements of the state. She does not fight for glory; she operates in the darkness to keep the machinery of the Empire breathing. A GLOBAL CONSPIRACY When a routine mission to secure naval ciphers uncovers a terrifying plan known as the Sovereign Directive, Ruth finds herself at the centre of a global trap. High-ranking industrialists and corrupt intelligence directors from both sides of the border are planning a simultaneous, devastating strike: the assassination of the British Prime Minister and the bombing of the Reichstag in Berlin. A HUNTED GHOST Framed for a high-society murder in the Sussex countryside and disavowed by her own mentor, Ruth is forced to become a ghost. Hunted by a ruthless Abwehr spymaster and the very agency that built her, she must navigate a fractured Europe to stop a corporate coup that would turn the continent into a slaughterhouse. From the opulent baccarat tables of Mayfair to the freezing, reinforced fortresses of the French Alps, Ruth Foxx has only her wits, a suppressed pistol, and a cold, driving need for the truth. In a world built on absolute lies, the only thing more dangerous than the conspiracy is the weapon they forgot they created. The Sovereign Directive is a grounded, visceral, and atmospheric historical thriller for readers who enjoy deep-cover espionage, political intrigue, and complex female protagonists.
