The Lie of the Land

Plucked from the ranks in the early days of The Great War, former journalist Daniel Kindred is seconded to the War Propaganda Bureau. A peaceful assignment in the bloodiest of all wars. Or so it seemed. His skills in turning U.S. opinion again the German War Machine soon find recognition in unexpected places and Berlin dispatches a team of saboteurs to bring an end to the Bureau. And to eliminate its chief propagandist. Escaping several attempts on his life, Daniel flees and falls in with New York Herald European Correspondent, Clare Johnson. With Russia faltering and Britain and France seeking a new ally, American public opinion may just turn the tide of the war. Daniel is in a race against time to raise enough attention in the U.S. to shake them from their neutrality before the German forces can redeploy to the west. And before he falls to an assassin's bullet. A fast moving thriller and a masterpiece of storytelling reminiscent of the late John Buchan.
