The Spy In Black

Description

1917

Three years on and the war is going badly. Thousands of men on both sides are dying on the deadlocked battlefields of the Western Front. The war at sea is also a stalemate.

A daring plot is hatched to cripple the British Fleet, based in Scapa Flow, Orkney, and allow the German Grand Fleet full domination of the Sea.

A U-boat officer lands in Orkney to rendezvous with a traitor willing to hand over top secret information which could spell disaster for the British Navy once in the hands of U-Boat Command…

In 1939 ‘The Spy In Black’ was made into the British film of the same title directed by Michael Powell and starring Conrad Veidt, Valerie Hobson and Sebastian Shaw.
