Two manuscripts are found in rubble, each one narrating conflicting versions of the life of an Irish spy during the war. One of them is the journal of a German military intelligence officer and anti-Nazi cowed into silence named Adrian de Groot, charting his relationship with his agent, friend, and sometimes lover, an Irishman named Frank Pike. In De Groot's narrative, Pike is a charismatic IRA fighter sprung from prison in Spain to assist with the planned German invasion of Britain, but who never gets the chance to consummate his deal with the devil. Meanwhile, the other manuscript gives a very different account of the Irishman's doings in the Reich. Assuming the alter ego of the Celtic hero Finn McCool, Pike appears here as the ultimate Allied saboteur. His mission: an assassination campaign of high-ranking Nazi doctors, culminating in the killing of Hitler's personal physician ... The two manuscripts spiral around each other, leaving only the reader to know the full truth of Pike and De Groot's relationship, their ultimate loyalties, and their efforts to resist the fascist reality in which they are caught"--Provided by publisher. 541 $d 20220519. 650 1 $a Manuscripts $x Fiction. 650 1 $a World War, 1939-1945 $v Fiction. 650 7 $a Spy stories. 650 $a Suspense fiction. 650 $a Audiobooks. 655 7 $a Gay fiction. 655 7 $a Spy fiction. 655 7 $a Thrillers (Fiction.) 941 $a 1 952 $l HPPD845 $d 20220802012702.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=8E238EB6122B11EDB028045E3CECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
