Dead Secret

Charles Pol is at the heart of another international conspiracy... Perfect for fans of Len Deighton, John Le Carre, Tom Clancy and Ian Fleming. Would you put your life on the line to expose a top-secret conspiracy...?

1979

While researching a government coverup over an oil spill just off the coast of Italy, reporter Tom Hawn stumbles upon a heart-shattering rumour.

He is told that the same corrupt oil company - ABCO, the America-Britannic Consortium - could have collaborated with Nazi Germany during the Second World War.

But the day after Hawn gets the tip-off, the man who told him it is murdered...

Hawn is in way over his head, but he knows he can't let this deadly secret go.

He bumps into ex-secret agent, Charles Pol and before he knows it he's dragged into a deadly game of cat and mouse.

Is there truth behind the rumour? Did the British and American oil company betray their own side to help Germany during the war?

And can Tom Hawn survive long enough to expose them...?

DEAD SECRET is the fifth classic terrorist adventure novel in the Charles Pol espionage thriller series: action-packed international thrillers, full of twists and turns.
