“The Great War's most explosive moment!”
The outbreak of World War I places Scots officer Geoffrey Richter-Douglas in an uncomfortable position.

In Germany, among old friends, Geoffrey discovers that loyalty is more complicated than he expected, especially when he finds himself aboard the maiden voyage of a powerful new prototype Zeppelin, headed for Scotland on a secret mission that could decide the outcome of the war.
