As shadows lengthen over Europe, the nefarious blueprint for a "Master Race" heralds the dawn of the Nazi's vision for a 1000-year Reich. The Lebensborn programme becomes the dark heart of this vision, a chilling scheme to engineer a future dominated by the genetically "pure" Aryans. Against this backdrop of eugenics and ambition, "Lebensborn" unveils the next chapter in the Addlestone Chronicles, where duty and danger collide with the indomitable spirit of two British spies. James and Louise Harcourt-Heath, now a formidable team in love and war, find themselves once again at the vortex of history's most sinister plans. Recruited by MI5, England's elite security service, their journey takes them from the deceptive calm of England to the charged atmospheres of Germany, Italy, and France. Amidst the glittering façade of the 1936 winter and summer Olympic games in Hitler’s Germany, they delve deeper into the heart of darkness, unearthing secrets that could alter the course of humanity. As they navigate a treacherous path, James and Louise are not just participants in a game of espionage—they are guardians of the light against the encroaching shadow of tyranny. The stakes are higher, the risks greater, and their resolve stronger. Beyond the thrilling adventures and heart-stopping moments, "Lebensborn" stands as a poignant reminder of history's lessons. Drawing unsettling parallels between the Europe of the 1930s and contemporary political currents in the US, the UK, and beyond, it echoes the timeless warning against the resurgence of fascist ideologies. Prepare to be enthralled by this gripping saga of courage, love, and defiance. James and Louise Harcourt-Heath return in an epic tale that not only entertains but implores us to remember and remain vigilant. The battle for the future is not just fought on the fields of war but in the hearts and minds of those who dare to dream of a world free from the shadows of tyranny.Ver libro

In an era when London’s Jack the Ripper murders have everyone on edge, the police want to keep the killings quiet. But the bodies are piling up as fast as the suspects—and unless the killer is found, the simmering New York summer could boil over into madness."Ver libro
