Matthew Pritchard worked as a journalist in Spain for ten years, mainly for the ex-pat press, but also for UK nationals (at which he has some good connections). He grew up in a house filled with gas masks, military helmets, swords and rifles and has possessed a lifelong interest in WWII ever since. Together with his father and uncle, he has amassed a sizeable collection of memoirs and memorabilia contemporary to the period.

Danny’s investigation not only grips with every page, but doesn’t let go until the end – and perhaps, not even then. Pritchard’s writing, both of narrative and conversation, is immediate, clear and always hits the mark; his characters come alive; and his pace is therefore first class. What more could one ask for? Answer: the next in the series, please.
