Part of Robert Ryan's Morning, Noon and Night trilogy.
In the dark days of war, darning and passion were their guiding light. A novel inspired by actual events.
In 1938, Ulrike Walter, a beautiful young German musician in Berlin, is engaged to be married to Erich Hinkel, a member of the Hitler Youth and stiff-armed in his loyalty to the Fuhrer. But when she meets Inspector Cameron Ross, a Scotland Yard policeman, whose father is a colonel in British Intelligence, her life will be changed for ever.
When war is declared, Erich joins the Bootwaffe, the U-boat submarine arm of the Nazi navy, and is incredibly effective in sinking Allied warships in the English Channel. Meanwhile, after the horrors of Kristallnacht, Ulrike flees Germany for the safety of England but is instead imprisoned as an enemy alien. Her only hope of rescue is Cameron, who, despite his better judgement, is falling in love with her.
When Erich's submarine is sunk by the British, he too is incarcerated in a prisoner of war camp in England. After a daring mass escape by German prisoners, Erich is recaptured and faces interrogation by Cameron Ross, the one man who stands between him and Ulrike, the woman who means more to Erich than life itself . . .
