Notes: Scarce. A record of a fraught time in British and European politics, the second novel of a young Newcastle journalist - the plot concerns a British ex-Army Officer of German descent, who has fallen in love with a German girl whilst holidaying in the Fatherland of his ancestors before being called back to stand as a Tory candidate in a bye-election. The novel opens with Hitler approaching his balcony, and offers a pre-War view of Nazism as well as the British Blackshirts.
