In this impactful World War II espionage thriller set in the aftermath of the Battle of Britain, one man must make a devastating choice.
With the Nazi war machine in its ascendancy, Luftwaffe flying ace Otto Friedmann is a man on the up.
In 1940, everything changes.
The Battle of Britain - the most visceral fight for the skies the world has ever known - sees Otto shot down and captured by the British. When his prison diary, full of indiscretions about the Nazi regime, is handed over to MI5, he faces an impossible choice: spy on the Fatherland, or be branded a traitor.
Thus begins Otto's second war: a fight to keep secrets from both sides, a fight to retain his honour, a fight to rediscover the man he once was. Should the mission fail, Otto will face one final choice... for in the Third Reich, there can be no second chances.
