Eva and Zoe Lambros are back in a gripping story of love, courage, and unyielding strength.
In 1958 Sydney. Eva & Zoe Lambros have survived every battle and built a life for themselves they always dreamed of. Their peace is short-lived. Now, the enemy hides in the shadows. What will it take to win?
Zoe, a celebrated artist and beloved teacher, is recovering from surgery as her 30th birthday approaches. Instead of rest, she’s met with an unexpected attack. A decorated war veteran turned radio host launches a vicious smear campaign, attacking Zoe’s art and her integrity, and mocks her war service.
At the same time, Eva is fighting a different kind of war. Lambros Industries is under siege. The company’s reputation is in jeopardy as government contracts disappear or mysteriously outbid. As Eva plans a celebration for Zoe’s birthday, she begins to suspect the attacks, both personal and professional, are connected.
Someone is targeting them. Someone who has been watching, waiting, and prepared to play the long game.

Enemy at the Gate has a new cover, and I’ve added new material, including an in-depth historical notes section and a map of Zoe’s first resistance mission. The cover features an image, courtesy of the Australian War Memorial, of a damaged building in Larissa, which was taken when the Anzacs had to fall back against the overwhelming German advance. It was originally in b/w but I’ve coloured the image. The Greek flag as depicted on the cover was used since 1822.
Since I’ve changed my name from Mary D. Brooks to Mary Dee, I’ve been updating my covers to reflect the change and, while doing that, incorporating new material in the new edition.
The print and ebook editions will be out shortly on AUSXIP Pub Store, Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Kobo, Apple Books, Tolino, OverDrive, Everand, Cloudlibrary, Baker & Taylor, Odilo, Gardners, Smashwords, Palace Marketplace, Fable, Borrow Box and many more
