The Hitler Canvas
May I introduce my book The Hitler Canvas, published in paperback and on Kindle.
Soho 1936. As war clouds gather over Europe a night-club singer is recruited by the British Secret Service to act as a spy on a German transatlantic luxury liner. 1940 finds him in Paris with his new wife, running a spy network whilst using his talent as an artist to pose as a portrait painter for the top Nazis. This leads to him being sent to Hitler's lair in the Obersalzberg where he is forced to paint 'The Hitler Canvas' - a portrait with dark, supernatural elements. His self-imposed mission after the war is to find and destroy it.
You can see the first chapters on Amazon or on my web-site at http://www.ianconway.biz which also shows some of my paintings and sound-bites from my cabaret show - like my book hero I am a professional artist and a singer, but not as talented as him.

I hope you enjoy it Judy. Thanks for the compliment of listing it. The soundbites from my cabaret show on my web-site at http://www.ianconway.biz would set the scene for the Soho night club in Chapter 2. But if you listen to them take care, have an empty bucket to hand and a medicinal glass of brandy. My book hero is a much bettter singer than I am.
