Synopsis

In the fifth year of conflict, the master plan for the invasion of Hitler’s Channel stronghold is the Allies’ greatest secret. National security demands it doesn’t fall into enemy hands.

To ensure the success of their offensive, the Allies launch a suicidal mission. To rescue the Colonel. Or silence him for ever…

Goodreads review by Harold

If there is such a thing as a perfect novel, this one is for me. Can anyone tell a tale of historical fiction like Jack Higgins? Not in my opinion.

Goodreads review by Lemar
