Shadow Without A Name by Ignacio Padilla

In 1916, on a train speeding towards the Austro-Hungarian Empire's disastrous Eastern Front, two soldiers play a game of chess. In the balance are their identities. The winner becomes a railway signalman and lives out the war in safety. The loser travels on to certain death. In 1943, it seems that someone is playing the same game, this time for even greater stakes. This time the game is for the identity of Adolf Eichmann. Who is moving the pieces?
Ignacio Padilla stands at the forefront of the literary movement known as 'Crack'. He is the author of four novels and two children's books, and is currently the cultural attache at the Mexican Embassy in London.
