About this ebook
'Rendezvous in Berlin' A stand alone novel, the fourth in the best selling Heidi Fuchs Rendezvous series, set in the second World War
The order has been given to kill the Fuhrer and stop the war - but who gave the order and will it make things better or worse? The assassination team are already in place: they have the means, the motive and now the opportunity. On the surface it sounds so simple - but whose interests are they serving?
Two mutually hostile groups, with very different intentions are frantically scouring Berlin to find the killers, before they act. The German capital in 1942 is a city at war, but not yet suffering the heavy bombing that was to come. On the surface the lights are still on and the night life thriving, but everywhere the Nazi grip is total, nowhere is safe.
Late comers to the search are retired civil servant, and occasional secret agent, Sir Freddy Villiers and his French wife Martine, now playing catch up in the hunt for people who have no intention of being found - or stopped - by anyone. Into this unstable mix the alluring figure of senior SS officer Heidi Fuchs insinuates herself, and she has her own, deeply personal, agenda. Do you really know who your friends are? Would you trust your life to them?
"A thrilling life and death chase through wartime Berlin - just one step ahead of the Gestapo."
Ian Okell
Ian was for many years a ship’s chandler, part of the fourth generation in his family business, supplying merchant vessels around the United Kingdom and north west Europe. Deciding that too much of his time was spent in travelling, and looking for a job which allowed more time for a home life, he set up a local business of his own; a registered firearms dealership. However, although still fun, the gun shop has turned into a much busier operation than originally envisaged, and is now run by son Mike, with Ian relegated to the role of general dogsbody. He is also a commercially qualified pilot on medium sized twin engined aircraft. Ian and his wife Margaret, another pilot, live in Cheshire, they have three grown up children and, so far, two grandchildren. For many years writing has been his hobby, resulting in about one book a year, although never with any thought of being published. It was only after taking part in a British Arts Council literary criticism website that his books found their way into print.
