The Salzburg Cipher

By David White

SILENT NIGHT. HOLY NIGHT. DEADLY NIGHT.

London, December 1925. The brandy's poured, the diplomats are toasting peace, and then a half-frozen man crashes Lord Bentley Grant's Christmas lunch. He's raving about a cipher, a convent fire, and a nun who shouldn't be alive. Minutes later, he's a corpse on the carpet.

Salzburg. The snow is falling. The choirs are singing. And the festive season's about to get explosive.

Cue George Penn: former fighter pilot, current chaos magnet, and the man they call when Christmas needs saving. Alongside him stands Morwenna Price: war nurse turned intelligence asset with a glare sharp enough to defrost the Alps. Their mission? Track down the mysterious nun, crack the cipher, and stop the continent from blowing itself apart under the mistletoe.

Expect a dizzying mix of festive intrigue, high-stakes improvisation, and enough alpine action to roast your chestnuts. From spectacular Christmas market showdowns to thrilling sleigh chases, Penn and Price will have to use every ounce of cunning, and every available ice skate, candy cane, and rogue decoration, to retrieve the cipher machine and stop a global catastrophe.

David White delivers a Christmas cracker The Salzburg Cipher is a riotous Yuletide adventure where the only thing more dangerous than the enemy is the eggnog.
