Guernika

Spain, 1936. A democracy shattered. Loyalties divided. Chaos reigns. In the gripping fourth installment of The Addlestone Chronicles, British secret agents James and Louise Harcourt-Heath, along with Donald and Beatrice Hutchinson, venture into the heart of a nation engulfed by civil war. Their mission: to discreetly observe and report on a conflict that threatens not only Spain but the stability of all Europe. As battles rage between the democratically elected Republicans and General Franco’s insurgent Nationalists, the agents find themselves navigating a landscape of deception, danger, and political intrigue. Britain’s official neutrality masks a deep unease over the potential repercussions: a fascist victory in Spain could tip the entire continent into darkness and threaten critical British territories, including Gibraltar. Brimming with vivid historical detail and relentless suspense, this novel brings the tense political landscape of 1930s Europe dramatically to life. As echoes of the past resound ominously in our modern political climate, readers will be compelled to ask: Could history be repeating itself?
