This is an alternative-history novel - a spy story set in Britain in 1941, after Britain had been defeated and occupied by the Nazis. It's a book I've been meaning to read for ages, having read a bit of it years ago and getting quite engaged by it.
It's very well-researched and seems entirely credible, but the plot is pretty complex and I lost it a bit at times - mainly because I've been very busy for the last few weeks, and read the book in lots of small sittings. This combined with my terrible memory resulted in me not being able to recall who all the myriad characters were and what their alleigances were etc...so I was a bit confused by the end.
Good stuff, though, and quite a gripping read. It would make a very good film, I think.
