Intrepid

“No one knows of your secret visits here. You are like the invisible man.” – Winston Churchill

“I like to keep things quiet. I’m Canadian.” – William Stephenson

An action-packed spy thriller recounting one of Winnipeg’s greatest heroes, William Stephenson, who became Churchill’s spymaster and the inspiration for James Bond. It’s 1940 and the fate of the free world depends on a nearly impossible plan to trick the United States into joining World War II and stopping Nazi plans for world domination.

Employing espionage, propaganda and the ageless art of seduction from atop Rockefeller Center in New York, Stephenson schemes to manipulate Roosevelt, destroy the Nazis’ nuclear ambitions, and assassinate the German intelligence chief Reinhard Heydrich aka ‘The Man with the Iron Heart’.

Inspired by true events, Alex Poch-Goldin weaves 1940s song and dance into an electrifying tale of intrigue, danger and double-crossing.
