Accompanied by podcast series Jonathan on Spotify
Jonathan is a young, ambitious officer in the Dutch Intelligence Service AIVD, deployed to prevent the impending instability in the Netherlands and Europe. Along the way he regularly gets into personal trouble. In Stay Behind, the first book in the Jonathan series, the intelligence officer must infiltrate in an extremist group that appears to be preparing an attack in the Netherlands. Is there a link to the underground resistance movement Stay Behind, which used secret operatives to defend the country during the Cold War and was still active into the 1990s?
The podcast series Jonathan was written in collaboration with screenwriter Janneke Rinzema. Both the book and the audio series are stand-alone stories, featuring the same main characters.
