Celebrate a decade of C. J. Sansom's gripping standalone novel, Winter in Madrid, with this special 10th anniversary edition. From the acclaimed author of the beloved Shardlake series comes a tale of espionage, love, and impossible choices set against the backdrop of war-torn Spain.

It's 1940, and Madrid lies in ruins following the Spanish Civil War. As its citizens struggle to survive, the German war machine continues its inexorable advance across Europe. Britain stands alone, while General Franco contemplates abandoning neutrality and joining the conflict.

Enter Harry Brett, a shell-shocked survivor of Dunkirk, reluctantly recruited by British Intelligence. His mission: to infiltrate the inner circle of Sandy Forsyth, an old schoolmate turned dubious businessman in Madrid. As Harry navigates this perilous world, he finds himself ensnared in a web of danger and haunted by ghosts of the past.

Meanwhile, Sandy's partner, Barbara Clare, a former Red Cross nurse, embarks on her own clandestine quest. She's determined to locate her missing lover, Bernie Piper, a passionate Communist who vanished amidst the chaos of the International Brigades on the blood-soaked Jarama battlefields.

C. J. Sansom's Winter in Madrid offers a haunting and intimate portrait of wartime Spain, weaving a compelling narrative that brings history to life. This masterful tale explores the profound consequences of choices made in the crucible of war, leaving readers spellbound until the very last page.
