The Solemn Hour

In the midst of a storm, a young diplomat is abandoned, dying, in the street. The woman he had fallen in love with betrayed him, stabbing him and leaving him alone, collapsed on the pavement in the rain, fighting for his life.

However, when this spy, whose exotic beauty seduces everyone she encounters, reappears and the Intelligence Service notices a detail, the story takes a sudden turn. What plot is she hatching? And what has happened to the Portuguese spy? Did he manage to survive? Everything becomes more complicated when a tycoon is kidnapped and the shady dealings of a pharmaceutical laboratory are called into question.

Set against a dazzling journey through extraordinary and cosmopolitan locations such as Moscow, Prague, London, Lisbon, and the Caribbean, The Solemn Hour is the final chapter in the espionage trilogy that launched Nuno Nepomuceno. The dramatic conclusion to a compelling story where nothing is as it seems, and you won't be able to put it down.
