But as Evan tracks Barrett Bradlee from the narrow cobbled streets of the city to the windswept watery expanses of the East Anglian fens, it soon becomes clear that the secretive family who hired him to find the missing heir haven't told him the whole truth.<br/><br/>Immersed in a thousand years of history and learning, Evan discovers that Barrett's woes stem from asking the wrong questions of the wrong people - questions about his own family. As he digs deeper, one question refuses to go unanswered - what lies behind Barrett's obsession with the US Air Force base at Lakenheath, the heart of the CIA's covert operations in England at the height of the Cold War?<br/><br/>As the mystery unravels, Evan finds himself caught up in a violent showdown that's been brewing for sixty years, a bitter feud between Barrett's family and that of a ruthless politician at the core of the British establishment, a desperate man with everything to lose who'll stop at nothing to prevent the dark secrets of his own family's past from coming to light.</span><br> <span style="float:right" id="preview"></span> <br><br>Genre: <a class="ameritxt" href="/genres/?gp=M">Mystery</a><br> </div> <br> <div class="sectionhead">Visitors also looked at these books</div><br><div class="similarbook"><a href="/e/warren-easley/deadly-redemption.htm"><img alt="cover of Deadly Redemption" src="/img/_.png" data-US="51jIpn2Cw7L._SL500_.jpg" data-GB="51jIpn2Cw7L._SL500_.jpg" data-CA="51jIpn2Cw7L._SL500_.jpg" data-AU="51jIpn2Cw7L._SL500_.jpg" width="120" height="185"></a><br><a href="/e/warren-easley/deadly-redemption.htm">Deadly Redemption</a><br>(<span class="iseries"><a href="/e/warren-easley/cal-claxton-mysteries/">Cal Claxton Mysteries</a>, book 10</span>)<br><a href="/e/warren-easley/">Warren C Easley</a></div><div class="similarbook"><a href="/h/blair-howard/unfinished-business.htm"><img alt="cover of Unfinished Business" src="/img/_.png" data-US="51GiEKuKN0L._SL500_.jpg" data-GB="51GiEKuKN0L._SL500_.jpg" data-CA="51GiEKuKN0L._SL500_.jpg" data-AU="51GiEKuKN0L._SL500_.jpg" width="120" height="185"></a><br><a href="/h/blair-howard/unfinished-business.htm">Unfinished Business</a><br>(<span class="iseries"><a href="/h/blair-howard/harry-starke/">Harry Starke</a>, book 24</span>)<br><a href="/h/blair-howard/">Blair Howard</a></div><div class="similarbook"><a href="/r/e-h-reinhard/insatiable.htm"><img alt="cover of Insatiable" src="/img/_.png" data-US="41d0RmP9OHL._SL500_.jpg" data-GB="41d0RmP9OHL._SL500_.jpg" data-CA="41d0RmP9OHL._SL500_.jpg" data-AU="41d0RmP9OHL._SL500_.jpg" width="120" height="185"></a><br><a href="/r/e-h-reinhard/insatiable.htm">Insatiable</a><br>(<span class="iseries"><a href="/r/e-h-reinhard/nash-harrington-crime-thriller/">Nash Harrington Crime Thriller</a>, book 13</span>)<br><a href="/r/e-h-reinhard/">E H Reinhard</a></div><div class="similarbook"><a href="/b/gary-winston-brown/good-as-dead.htm"><img alt="cover of Good as Dead" src="/img/_.png" data-US="51Pf4rHYp7L._SL500_.jpg" data-GB="51Pf4rHYp7L._SL500_.jpg" data-CA="51Pf4rHYp7L._SL500_.jpg" data-AU="51Pf4rHYp7L._SL500_.jpg" width="120" height="185"></a><br><a href="/b/gary-winston-brown/good-as-dead.htm">Good as Dead</a><br>(<span class="iseries"><a href="/b/gary-winston-brown/matt-gamble/">Matt Gamble</a>, book 1</span>)<br><a href="/b/gary-winston-brown/">Gary Winston Brown</a></div><div class="spacer"></div><br> <div id="usedsection" class="sectionhead">Used availability for James Harper's Never Go Back</div> <iframe id="abeframe" style="visibility:hidden;" width="710" height="0" src="about:blank" data-src="/frames/abe.001.htm"></iframe> <br> <div id="genre-list"></div>  <div class="ad-banner-bottom">  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1561798315429-0'> <script> if (!noads) googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1561798315429-0'); }); </script> </div> </div>   <br> <div class="search"> <form action="/search/"><span class="searchtxt">Search for  </span><select class="searchselect" name="searchfor" onchange="this.form.keywords.focus();"><option selected="selected" value="author">Author</option><option value="book">Book</option><option value="series">Series</option></select>  <input class="searchinput" type="text" name="keywords" maxlength="60" required>  <input type="submit" value="Find"></form> </div> <a href="/about.htm">About Fantastic Fiction</a>       <a href="/information-for-authors.htm">Information for Authors</a> <br> <div class="footer"> <a href="/privacy.htm">Privacy Policy</a>       <a href="/cookie-policy.htm">Cookie Policy</a>       <a href="/terms.htm">Terms</a>       <a href="/affiliate-disclosure.htm">Affiliate disclosure</a>       <a href="/preferences.htm">Preferences</a> <br> Questions?
