Join us as we celebrate the publication of Flora Johnston's new book, The Berlin Passport Office
Join bestselling author, Flora Johnston, on Wednesday 18th November, at 7pm as we celebrate the publication of her brand new, gripping historical novel of espionage, courage and quiet resistance in the darkening shadow of the Nazi regime,The Berlin Passport Office
Berlin, 1938. Scottish author Corran Rutherford is travelling to Germany to deliver lectures about her books as well as write articles about life under the Third Reich. But beneath this respectable cover lies her true mission: infiltrate the social circle of a high-ranking Luftwaffe officer and gather intelligence for MI6.
Corran steps into a complicated political landscape, a world of hidden loyalties and dangerous secrets. Inside the seemingly innocuous offices of British Passport Control, the routine issuing of visas and passports veils a network of agents connected across Europe. And under the gathering clouds of war and in plain sight of the authorities, Frank Foley uses his mundane bureaucratic role to bend rules and forge lifelines, helping desperate Jewish citizens escape persecution.
