Summary

The breathtaking sequel to the all-time classic The Eagle Has Landed, reissued for a new generation

The greatest World War Two story of all time is not over....

By the end of 1943, all evidence of the abortive German attempt to assassinate Winston Churchill has been carefully buried in an unmarked grave in the Norfolk village of Studley Constable.

But two of the most wanted ringleaders are still alive....

In the fourth hard winter of war, British Intelligence pick up disturbing reports from Heinrich Himmler’s power base in Wewelsburg Castle. The mission is not yet accomplished. For the Fatherland, the Reichsfuhrer is demanding the Eagle’s return....

Great sequel

Action packed world war 2 thriller of the highest calibre. I found the story thoroughly gripping from start to finish. The narration was also excellent.

Excellent follow on novel.

Flows at a cracking pace and pulls so nany interesting characters together. An excellent story.

Great sequel

Good solid follow up to the fabulous Eagle has landed. Similar plot sequences in places but takes nothing away from the joy of having Devlin back at his best. Noble is excellent as always in narration - Devlin's voice for me now synonymous with Noble's depiction.

If you like Higgins, The Eagle has landed and Devlin...then this is a must.

Sequels always a risk !

Surprisingly good . Of course the characters are familiar and with the same narrator as before it had a head start .
Very enjoyable.
