Items related to The Maze of Cadiz (Peter Cotton)
Sent to Spain in 1944 to arrest a rogue spy, British agent Peter Cotton expects an easy first assignment. But he arrives to find his quarry dead and all of Cadiz awaiting his arrival. In a hotbed of scandal and murder, Cotton must navigate a labyrinth of international conspiracies, shifting political allegiances, and a mysterious local expatriate community to discover the truth. What he unearths could just tilt the emerging balance of post-war power and the course of history for ever.

About the Author:
This is Aly Monroe's first novel, part of a projected series that begins during World War II and follows the process of decolonization and the aftermath of Empire.
