About this audiobook
"A stunning spy story . . . incomparable." —The Guardian
It's 1979, and a group of former SS officers are devising a plan to seize power in West Germany. XPD is a brilliant novel constructed around a supposition that Churchill secretly met with Hitler in 1940 to discuss terms of a British surrender. British agent Boyd Stuart is intent on preventing those wartime documents from becoming public. XPD—short for "expedient demise," the code used by the Secret Intelligence Service to refer to the assassinations it carries out—is another stunning novel from Len Deighton.
