As David Gresham and James Wilkins pursue their missions for Great Britain, they see (and some times cause) events that shake the very foundations of Europe. David Gresham, a British Lieutenant from Manchester who has fought on the front lines at Ypres, and Captain James Wilkins, youngest son of Lord Bartlett, are recruited into the fledgling Secret Intelligence Service following the British landing on the Gallipoli peninsula in 1915. Gresham and Wilkins undertake a series of missions that indirectly spark major events in the war.In the second novel of the series, Great Britain isn't the only empire seeking to undermine its adversaries' governments. A German spy has been busy inciting rebellion in Ireland and India and British agents Gresham and Wilkins must race through Europe trying to track him down before traveling to Roumania to convince the neutral country to declare war against Germany. However, Great Britain's ally Russia is on the verge of collapse. Wilkins must decide how he can help rebuild a country and hold on to the love of his life while Gresham seeks revenge.To learn more about the Kingdoms Fall series and the First World War, please visit the companion website at www.kingdomsfallnovel.com.… (more) |

Epigraph |
Nations are in uproar, kingdoms fall; he lifts his voice, the earth melts. Come and see what the Lord has done, the desolations he has brought on the earth. He makes wars cease to the ends of the earth. He breaks the bow and shatters the spear; he burns the shields with fire. - Psalms 46:6-9 | |
