The Information Officer

War-time Malta thriller; hunt for a killer.

If you're into stories that blend historical context with gripping mystery, "The Information Officer" is right up your alley. Mark Mills expertly crafts a narrative set in WWII Malta, a setting not often explored, with a twist of murder that makes the pages turn themselves. Max Chadwick's simultaneous battle for justice amidst the chaos of war creates a nail-biting tension that's as much about moral dilemmas as it is about thrilling pursuit. You'll be engrossed by the historical authenticity and the intricate plot.

Description

From the No. 1 bestseller and author of Richard & Judy pick The Savage, an atmospheric World War Two crime thriller for fans of Carlos Ruiz Zafon and Jed Rubenfeld. Summer, 1942. For the people of Malta, suffering daily bombing raids, the British are the last line of defence against the Nazis. And it is Max Chadwick's job as the information officer to ensure the news the islanders receive maintains morale. So when Max is given proof suggesting a British officer is murdering local women, he knows the consequences of discovery are dire. With the violence on the war-ravaged island escalating daily, he embarks on a private investigation, hidden from the eyes of superiors, friends, and the woman he loves. But Max finds himself torn between patriotic duty and personal honour in his efforts to track down the killer - an elusive figure always one step ahead of his hunter.
