TheReich Device is a stylish pre-WW2 spy thriller. A roller coaster ride of tension and intrigue.
Leipzig, May 1933, Professor Gustav Mayer makes a monumental discovery, but a new menace rises in Germany...

Mayer is hunted by ruthless killers from the newly formed SS, with only his conscience and a mysterious agent, Major Danny Nash of the British Secret Intelligence to protect him. Mayer is captured and forced to work on the fledgling V1 rocket programme, but Germany has greater ambitions. The brutal Commandant Kessler knows Mayer is hiding something.

Nash has a stark choice: save Mayer or protect the world from a devastating new technology. A trail of espionage leads from Berlin to New York, Cairo, and then South Africa. German spies are trading gold for clandestine favours in Cape Town. But what does this have to do with big American corporations and V1 rockets?

Nash is running out of options. A showdown in the swamp-forests of Zululand gives Germany the upper hand. But the game is not over until the last man is standing - assassins on both sides have men to kill.

This is the first Danny Nash spy thriller by Richard Handy. His expert knowledge brings a realism to fiction that is hard to beat. This book will appeal to fans of historical thrillers and action novels. The Reich Device is for you if like reading novels by Clive Cussler, Robert Harris (Fatherland, Munich, V2), or Simon Scarrow (Blackout).
