About The Ways of the World by Robert Goddard
Paris in 1919 is crowded with diplomats, politicians, spies and opportunists negotiating Germany’s future after the First World War. Amid efforts to preserve an appearance of calm, British diplomat Sir Henry Maxted dies after falling from the roof of his mistress’s apartment building.
His son, James “Max” Maxted, a former Royal Flying Corps ace, investigates the death, putting him at odds with those who would rather avoid questions. Robert Goddard’s espionage story is set against postwar diplomacy and the uncertain loyalties of a city where national interests are in play. It may suit readers drawn to historical spy fiction and the political aftermath of the First World War.
