Tag Mills's bestselling books Amagansett and The Savage Garden have gained him popular acclaim for his singular make of suspense. Weaving a haunting and atmospheric historical backdrop with a tense plot of murder and an remarkable love account, he provides another riveting tale in The Information Officer.
Summer time 1942: Malta, a tiny windswept island in the Mediterranean, has become the most bombed patch of earth on the planet, worse even than London during the Blitz. The Maltese, a fiercely indie people, resist the relentless Axis air raids.
Utmost Chadwick is the British isles officer charged with manipulating the news headlines on Malta to strengthen the population's delicate esprit de corps. That is all, besides a few broken-down fighter planes, that stands in the face of Nazi occupation as well as perhaps even win—for Malta is the stepping-stone the Germans need between Europe and North Africa.
When Utmost learns of the brutal murder of a island girl—along with research that the criminal offense was committed by way of a British official—he understands that the Maltese devotion to the war work could be instantly shattered. As the clock ticks down toward all-out invasion, Utmost must check out the murder—beyond the gaze of his superiors, friends, and even the woman he adores.
Filled up with remarkably poignant and atmospheric information on life under siege, and indelible character types who live and breathe, The Information Officer is a taut, carrying thriller—an enthralling novel told with exceptional skill and style.
