Conspiracy

This enthralling book by Iain Gale is the 4th volume of the delightful and exciting James Keane series.Just like the other books this book also contains a very well documented historical note at the end of the book, with some clear explanations about certain military actions during the Peninsular War, as well as explanations about spying during this War, especially about a man by the name of Colquhoun Grant.Storytelling is again of top-quality, because the author has made it possible to let the tale flow from beginning till end, with exciting descriptions of bloody actions in this war as well as persevering spying endeavours that will grip you all the way.This tale is set in the year AD 1812 within the Peninsular War, which was fought between Britain; with some help of Portugal and Spain; against the might of Napoleon's France.The story itself is about James Keane, who's been sent on a spying mission to Paris, this mission is largely based on real events which befell the real Colquhoun Grant, with a couple of his men, meaning Archer and Silver, with the instructions to infiltrate the French society in Paris.With subterfuge, lies, betrayal and a honest conscience Keane has to try to infiltrate into this web of treachery and turmoil of dissension, but at the same time he has to be aware of spies everywhere working for Napoleon.What will follow is a gripping spy story in which Keane has to fight his way into this world of double-dealing, and finally in persevering to accomplish a defeat for the French Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte.Very much recommended, for this is for sure a "Conspicuous Accomplished Story"!

I have read all the books in this series. I just wish he would get on with writing and producing the next volume. I am anxious to know what happens next!

Not as good as the others in the series

Really enjoyable napoleonic tale but why why did author stop the series?

Product as described and delivered on time, very happy.
