A new spy thriller about treason and conscience, loyalty and betrayal, filled with real-life characters - Hitler, Chamberlain, Mussolini - and actual events, from the bestselling author of FATHERLAND and CONCLAVE. Set against the backdrop of the MUNICH Conference of 1938, MUNICH follows the fortunes of two old friends whose paths are set on a collision course - with dramatic results.
eptember 1938
Hitler is determined to start a war.
Chamberlain is desperate to preserve the peace.
The issue is to be decided in a city that will forever afterwards be notorious for what takes place there.
Munich.
As Chamberlain's plane judders over the Channel and the Führer's train steams relentlessly south from Berlin, two young men travel with secrets of their own.
Hugh Legat is one of Chamberlain's private secretaries; Paul Hartmann a German diplomat and member of the anti-Hitler resistance. Great friends at Oxford before Hitler came to power, they haven't seen one another since they were last in Munich six years earlier. Now, as the future of Europe hangs in the balance, their paths are destined to cross again.
When the stakes are this high, who are you willing to betray? Your friends, your family, your country or your conscience?
