Summary
New York Times bestselling author Alan Furst is internationally renowned as master of the European espionage thriller. Unfolding in September of 1939 as Hitler’s Wehrmacht ravages Warsaw, the Polish Officer discloses the clandestine existence of Polish Military Intelligence.
Captain Alexander de Milja understands that his life, as he knows it, is over. But even in this bleakest of circumstances, all need not be lost. At a decimated cavalry stable under the droning of German bombers, Alexander is offered a choice: die in a last stand, or accept a new appointment—and discover a way to keep on fighting even in the face of defeat. His first mission: lead the final refugee train south from doomed Warsaw.
With delicately wrought prose and a historian’s eye for detail, Alan Furst offers a powerful, emotionally challenging addition to his stellar catalogue.

What a gifted Author
What a writer, Alan Furst seems to be a hidden talent here on Audible at least. The Polish Officer had me riveted and George Guidall - the perfect voice for this story - really brought wartime Paris (I live here) into grim focus. The Polish chapters, the desperate brutality of their two enemies informed me and wrung me out. Yes I was riveted and bought three more of Alan Furst’s books before I was half way through. Thank you Mr Furst you’ve enriched my life!
