Mischief & Masquerade (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781636830001)

In this sequel to Roses and Red Herrings, William Stamford is still working for the Admiralty's deception planners, but now without the help of Lucy, his assistant and fiancée. He has no idea of her whereabouts, except that she is somewhere in the USA and involved highly secret work.

As if being parted from Lucy is not enough, William falls foul of a senior allied naval officer, who is resentful at being hoodwinked by one of his stories. An additional threat is the return of his old adversary Commander Bonnington.

With those impediments, William must apply himself to the greatest deception of the war. The success of the invasion of Europe depends on the enemy being convinced that the landings will take place somewhere other than in Normandy. Agents on both sides play a deadly guessing game, culminating in a desperate bid to prevent the enemy from learning the truth.
