Description

A seasoned British operative is thrust into the shadowy world of wartime espionage, tasked with slipping behind enemy lines to gather crucial intelligence. Disguised as a local, he navigates a coast shrouded in fog, where every stranger could be a watchful guard or a hidden ally. The tension builds as he races against time, aware that a single misstep could expose his true purpose and doom his mission.

As the spy delves deeper, he discovers a tangled web of loyalties among civilians, soldiers, and even fellow agents. Trust becomes a scarce commodity, and he must decide whether to follow orders or act on his own conscience when the stakes rise unexpectedly. Listeners will be drawn into the claustrophobic cat‑and‑mouse chase, feeling each heartbeat of danger as the first act unfolds.
