Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stortorget Square, Stockholm, 1945. "In a side street, Peter waited near the car with Evdokia dressed in a grey raincoat. Her head was covered with a black cloth bag. A car stopped on the opposite side of the square. Two men emerged. Peter recognized one of them as the NKVD head of station, Major Vladimir Petrov, in a business suit and a fedora. He led the way, followed by a second man wearing a workman’s cap over his white hair. The hand-off was to happen in the middle of the square. Evdokia stumbled badly on the cobblestones in her heels as Peter brought up his Webley revolver to show the Russians he was taking no chances. “Mr Faye. Thank you so much for bringing my wife,” Vladimir said. “Why have you put a bag on her head?” “To shut the bitch up, Mr Petrov.” “Ha, ha. You have a sense of humour. You don’t intend to shoot her, do you?” “Maybe I will, Mr Petrov. Is this your man Sasha?” “Yes, this is Sasha from Moscow.” “You will not live long, Mr Faye,” Sasha said. “Your friend Bernie Dixon screamed like a pig. We do the same to you.” From the bestselling author of Playing Rudolf Hess, Shipwrecked Lives, Remembrance Man and White Slaves comes this brilliantly imagined spy thriller set in wartime Sweden. On his first assignment for MI6, British agent Peter Faye is sent to Stockholm to spy on German intelligence officer Karl-Heinz Kramer. At the British legation, he meets his new boss Bridget, a very proper, smart-as-a-whip, diplomat's daughter and immediately falls in love with her. They struggle to work together as they recruit an Austrian maid, Hanne, who works in the Kramer household. Hanne makes a copy of the key to Kramer's desk drawer and delivers secret documents to Peter and his driver Bernie who photograph them in a shed nearby. The documents are so sensitive they cause a huge commotion in London. With the help of a Swedish journalist, Peter discovers a network of Soviet moles working in British Intelligence and becomes the target of Soviet NKVD terror tactics. A SPY THRILLER BASED ON REAL WARTIME INTELLIGENCE OPERATIONS IN SWEDEN. An intelligent spy story in the genre John le Carré based on the wartime experience of SIS officer Peter Falk (Faye), SOE officer Ewan Butler, British Legation Chief Victor Mallet and German Abwehr officer Karl-Heinz Kramer. An espionage and spy thriller set in Sweden, based on a true story about an MI6 agent in Sweden. Book reviews: "A remarkable story with a Canadian connection." Susan Campbell, CBC Radio. "I really enjoyed reading this wartime spy thriller, set in Sweden. Looking forward to reading more from this great author in the future." Goodreads. "I bought this book as I am very interested in WW2 history. I was not disappointed. Kinsey has written an exciting, fast-paced espionage thriller set in wartime Sweden. It is well written, and I was immediately caught up in the story finding it extremely difficult to put down. It is based on actual wartime stories and is a haunting account of those dangerous and difficult times. Well done! I plan to read more by this author." Amazon. "Enjoyed this book because it's a fast read and a pretty strong plot. Additionally, it was based on the actual facts of Sweden in World War II. The major strength was the characters, and therefore it strengthened the plot because I became more focused on the story because of my intense interest in the characters. This is a good book and I give a high recommendation." BookSirens.
Download or read book Warrior Kings of Sweden written by Gary Dean Peterson and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2014-08-21 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For a hundred years, Sweden was the international military power of Northern Europe, in control of the entire Baltic region and among the first to colonize in Africa and America. But the history of Sweden, Finland, the Baltic States, Poland, and Prussia is largely neglected in American classrooms and scholarship. This book fills a large void in European history as it is generally presented to the American student and reader. This narrative covers Sweden's Age of Greatness (1632-1718) and the warrior-kings who governed that age. It chronologically describes the political and religious events of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries and reveals how these events produced the climate for European global expansion, including the exploration and colonization of the New World. The story traces history through the reigns of Sweden's ambitious rulers, beginning with the presumably Swedish Goths who ravaged the Roman Empire in the 2nd century CE and continuing through the end of the empire in the early eighteenth century. A thorough epilogue documents the cultural flowering in the arts and sciences that commenced in the Age of Greatness and continued to blossom in the centuries that followed. This final section of the book pays special attention to the personalities that drove Sweden's far-reaching cultural progress.

Download or read book Songs from Sweden written by Ola Johansson and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-05-16 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Songs from Sweden shows how Swedish songwriters and producers are the creative forces behind much of today’s international pop music. As Ola Johansson reveals, the roots of this “music miracle” can be found in Sweden’s culture, economy, and thriving music industry, concentrated in Stockholm. While Swedish writer-producers developed early global recognition for making commercially successful pop music, new Swedish writer-producers have continuously emerged during the last two decades. Global artists travel to Stockholm to negotiate, record, and co-write songs. At the same time, Swedish writer-producers are part of a global collaborative network that spans the world. In addition to concrete commercial accomplishments, the Swedish success is also a result of the acquisition of reputational capital gained through positive associations that the global music industry holds about Swedish music. Ultimately, pop songs from Sweden exhibit a form of cultural hybridity, drawing from both local and global cultural expressions.
