Fartfylld alternativhistoria med trollkarlar och vild vetenskap. Efter världskriget råder ett kallt krig mellan Storbritannien och Sovjetunionen. Om en trollkarl dör betyder det nu ett hot mot britternas nationella säkerhet. Två syskon flyr från en experimentanläggning bakom hjärnridån och reser mot England, där de söker den förre spionen Raybould Marsh, som än en gång tvingas ta upp kampen för att värna drottning och land.
In Ian Tregillis' The Coldest War, a precarious balance of power maintains the peace between Britain and the USSR. For decades, Britain's warlocks have been all that stands between the British Empire and the Soviet Union - a vast domain stretching from the Pacific Ocean to the shores of the English Channel. Now each wizard's death is another blow to Britain's national security.
Meanwhile, a brother and sister escape from a top-secret facility deep behind the Iron Curtain. Once subjects of a twisted Nazi experiment to imbue ordinary people with superhuman abilities, then prisoners of war in the immense Soviet research effort to reverse-engineer the Nazi technology, they head for England. Because that's where former spy Raybould Marsh lives. And Gretel, the mad seer, has plans for him.
As Marsh is once again drawn into the world of Milkweed, he discovers that Britain's darkest acts didn't end with the war. And while he strives to protect queen and country, he is forced to confront his own willingness to accept victory at any cost.
