Overview

THE ICE QUEEN'S GAMBIT (1947) London has survived the Blitz, but peace has not brought rest. In the derelict icehouses of the East End, Dr. Eleanor Graves and intelligence officer Alec Wexford uncover a chilling truth: Nazi scientists are being smuggled into Britain. The architect of the operation is Ilse Brandt, a former SS interrogator now aligned with the Soviets-calculating, brilliant, and intent on shaping the next war before the ashes of the last have settled. America wants the scientists for rockets. The Soviets want them for empire. Britain wants relevance. But Ilse Brandt wants control. To stop her, Wexford and Graves must decide whether morality can survive when survival itself becomes strategy. THE GHOST OF PRAGUE (1943) Before Ilse Brandt. Before the Cold War began. There was the ghost. During the war, Wexford receives a message from Henry Mercer, a comrade he watched die in the trenches in 1917. But Mercer lives-reborn as an informant moving through the neutral shadows of Lisbon, holding knowledge that could alter Allied plans. To confront Mercer, Wexford must confront himself - and the truth buried in mud, smoke, and guilt. Some ghosts are not haunting us. They are waiting to be acknowledged.
