“Germany
calling, Germany calling,” came the nasal voice of Lord Haw-Haw, aka William
Joyce, a former Blackshirt leader who fled to Germany with his wife on the
outbreak of war. “Keep the volume down, Elsa. We don’t want any
suspicions after all this time,” Paul Longhurst said, sitting at the table in
the comfortable flat. A careful man, he was meticulous about calling his wife
“Elsie” in public. The staff downstairs in Dunn & Co, gentlemen’s outfitters, which
looked out on the Guildhall in Rochester High Street, would have been horrified
to learn that Elsa’s late father was a German wine merchant in Soho who married
an English girl while Paul was a former Berlin actor who had
perfected his English at a special party school in Hamburg.
