There's only one way home: straight through the enemy.
From the author of The Long Day's Dying, a tense, gripping novella about a daring commando mission in Occupied France during WW2.
Four commandos parachute into occupied Holland. Their mission: to delay and impede German communications long enough to cover the escape of an Allied unit a few miles away. Soon the countryside is in chaos, and the whole German army is hunting for them.
If they miss the rendezvous with the plane sent to extract them, it's a long way home
Another thrilling commando raid novel from a former WW2 Commando, perfect for fans of Max Hennessy and Alan Evans. Alan White's brilliant war novels have the authenticity born of personal experience. As leader of a commando unit in World War II, he made more than a dozen operational jumps into Occupied Europe. He also fought in North Africa. After the war he joined the BBC and enjoyed a wide-ranging media career including the role of White House correspondent in the US. He has written over forty novels.
