Warlands

A cache of secret documents from World War II leads veteran CIA operative Claire Hayden (The Blood of Lost Empires, The Man in the Glass Box, The White Woman) to the decades-old mystery behind the disappearance of a glamorous war correspondent named Eve Lawrence. A member of the prewar Paris Avant garde, Eve's reporting from the heart of Hitler's Reich proved crucial to the Allies' victory. A chronicle of murder, betrayal, and clashing loyalties, the documents contain enticing details about Eve's disappearance and her supposed link to a covert spy network launched by the U.S. and Britain at the end of the war. Hayden's discovery propels her and partner Max Reinmann on a quest to solve the mystery of Eve's fate even as the facts they uncover reveal a long suppressed secret about Hayden herself. What she learns strikes at the very core of who she is.
