About this listen

 In wartime New Zealand, Kate Hardy and a US Marine Major search for a group of traitors, following a trail back to Kate's Scandinavian community, including her own family.

New Zealand, June 1943. Kate Hardy, a reporter for the Dominion newspaper and the newest member of the Hardy clan, is sent to Kapiti Coast to see what's happening at Camp Russell, one of several US Marine training camps in New Zealand during World War II. The Marines are training for an attack on the Solomon Islands, but her editor has heard that something unusual is happening down on the beach in front of the camp. Could they have spotted an enemy submarine or even an enemy invasion? Or is it something closer to home?

The answer drives her back to her own community, the Scandinavian descendants of the settlers who escaped the Prussian Army almost seventy years earlier. German residents are being interned, making life difficult for Scandinavians, many of whom have German-sounding names and appearances.

To complicate her search, an American Marine major keeps appearing everywhere she goes. He has a past, and so does she. Can they work together to stop an enemy who is hiding somewhere in plain sight? Or will they, too, become enemies?

This three-book series is a spinoff from two previous series by this author: The Sergeant Frank Hardy Mysteries and Mr. Hardy Investigates. Readers of those series will recognize place names and elderly characters who were children in the earlier series. However, reading those series before starting this one is unnecessary. 20th Century Action & Adventure Historical Historical Fiction Mystery, Thriller & Suspense Thriller & Suspense Military
