Born in Germany in 1922, Colin Anson's (Claus Ascher) childhood was marked by the trials of Nazism. His father was arrested by the Gestapo in 1937 and transported to Dachau, where he died shortly after. Colin, aged just seventeen, escaped to Britain in the Kindertransport. As soon as he was old enough, Colin volunteered in the Pioneer Corps. Then, in 1942, he was recruited for the elite commando unit X-Troop. Colin took part in the invasions of Sicily and Italy in 1943, where he sustained a near-fatal injury. But just months later, he returned to duty.

But he thought I had a better chance of finding out than most. After all, most of my family had at one time or another been with SIS, my mother one of only a handful of female agents to have operated behind the lines in post-war Berlin.

A Mother's Promise is a love letter to a mother eighty years in the making.
