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…

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

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.

Excellent follow on novel.

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

The continuation  of the story from the eagle has landed

An excellent book switch kept me interested, and was exceptionally descriptive of the environment and action. Wondering why this was never put too film? As this would have been a great movie.
