The Betrayal
1904
Guy Ducaine seems like an ordinary young man teaching in a seaside village school, until he's offered a position as Secretary to the Committee of National Defense. Suddenly this quiet educator holds Britain's most sensitive war plans in his hands. But espionage has no patience for the unprepared. A stranger found dead in the marshes. Eyes watching from the darkness. Enemy agents circling. And somewhere within his own circle, a traitor waits. E. Phillips Oppenheim, the era's undisputed master of political suspense, weaves espionage, romance, and moral dilemma into a propulsive narrative that pulses with pre-WWI tension. This is spy fiction in its infancy, when secrets carried the weight of nations and one person's choice could alter the course of history. For lovers of vintage thrillers and period intrigue.
