About this listen

Operation Nightfall: The Web of Spies by Karl Wegener (Winner of the 2025 Literary Titan Book Award, Longlisted for the Spymasters Book Prize) is a gripping espionage thriller brought vividly to life by narrator Catherine Divaris and produced and published by The Author’s Point.

Set in the tense aftermath of World War II, this Cold War spy novel plunges listeners into the hidden war raging across Eastern Europe. In 1948, with Stalin’s iron grip tightening, two unlikely British operatives—former SOE agent Luba Haas and new MI6 officer Natalie Jenkins—are dispatched into Soviet-occupied Poland. Their mission: support the Polish resistance, awaken a long-silent sleeper agent, and survive a game of betrayal buried deep within British intelligence.

Praised as “packed with historical details, spy tradecraft, and brimming with intrigue” (I.S. Berry, Edgar Award-winning author), and hailed as “a gripping tale of loyalty, survival, and the scars left by war” (Thomas Anderson, Literary Titan), Operation Nightfall is more than a spy thriller—it’s a haunting exploration of trust, betrayal, and resilience in the shadow of war.

Blending historical fiction, Cold War conspiracy, and espionage suspense, Karl Wegener’s masterful storytelling captures the raw danger of post-WWII Europe. Inspired by real declassified intelligence files and insurgencies, this audiobook will captivate fans of John le Carré, Alan Furst, William Boyd, and Kate Quinn.

Whether you love espionage thrillers, Cold War spy novels, or military historical fiction, Operation Nightfall: The Web of Spies delivers heart-pounding action, unforgettable characters, and rich historical depth—making it one of the must-listen audiobooks of 2025.
