REDEEMABLE is a standalone short story in the critically acclaimed Peter Cotton series following the fortunes of British spy Peter Cotton as he navigates the treacherous uncertainties of the post-war world. For all readers of John le Carre, Robert Harris, Eric Ambler and Graham Greene
Germany: July 1945. From poverty-stricken Madrid, intelligence agent Peter Cotton is sent to the British Zone of Occupation, first to Hamburg, then to Luneberg, headquarters of the Second Army. The troops, told to be 'conquerors, not oppressors', have discovered that in Germany anyway, they are rich and can get richer. The black market is blatant and comes in many shades and temptations - but just how high up the chain of command does it go And what can Cotton really do about it
