About this listen

Paris, 1939. Torn apart by war, Saffron Courtney and Gerhard von Meerbach are thousands of miles apart, both struggling for their lives. Gerhard - despite his objections to the Nazi regime - is fighting for the Fatherland, hoping to one day have the opportunity to rid Germany of Hitler and his cronies. But as his unit is thrown into the hellish attrition of the Battle of Stalingrad, he knows his chances of survival are dwindling by the day.

Meanwhile, Saffron - recruited by the Special Operations Executive and sent to occupied Belgium to discover how the Nazis have infiltrated SOE's network - soon finds herself being hunted by Germany's most ruthless spymaster. Confronted by evil beyond their worst imaginings, the lovers must each make the hardest choice of all: sacrifice themselves, or do whatever they can to survive, hoping that one day they will be reunited.

Courtney's War is an epic story of courage, betrayal and undying love that takes the listener to the very heart of a world at war.

Rollicking good fun, not the most original story line, but you won’t mind. A decent espionage story, set in WWII.

I don't know how many books I've read by Wilbur Smith. I know this must have been close to his last and I so appreciate even though you're not alive on this planet, if you do have any kind of a consciousness, I want to thank you for being such a wonderful writer and giving me personally so much joy in all your work.

thank you Wilbur!
