June 1944. Allied leaders needed the enemy to guess wrong. This book tells the true story of the plan that made that happen. It shows how double agents, fake armies, and careful signals pushed the German high command to guard Pas de Calais while the landings hit Normandy.
Follow Operation Fortitude and the Double Cross System. Watch Garbo send reports that Berlin trusted. See Quicksilver build radio traffic for a force that did not exist. Learn how small boats and aircraft created radar returns that drew eyes away from the real beaches. Each chapter builds from archives, war diaries, and declassified files.
This is clear, high-energy history. It explains who made the choices, how the plan ran day by day, and why the pause near Calais lasted for weeks. The result was time for the beachhead to grow and for the breakout to begin.
