The Zeppelin's Passenger Excerpt
Short Summary: A daring British agent finds himself in deadly pursuit of a German spy, while navigating bombings and betrayal during World War I.
"It was half-past ten by the clock in the War Office, and the rain streamed down outside in the dismal November darkness. Julian Orden, the new assistant in the Secret Service Department, bent over the dossier before him. The knock at his door was quiet but unmistakably urgent."
"A Zeppelin over London. That's all I needed to hear," Julian muttered, closing the file. "So he's in the city now. The passenger must be him."
Outside, the low, ominous hum in the air sent a chill through the streets. The city braced itself in silence as anti-aircraft fire rattled through the clouds. Julian moved swiftly, trench coat drawn close, revolver in pocket. The chase had begun.
"There's more than one enemy tonight," whispered the shadow beside him, handing over the coded telegram. Julian read it with grim determination. London's fate might hinge on one man slipping away through its fog-bound streets."
