Book Condition & Notes
A fair first edition, signed by the author. There is a large bump to the back bottom board, which has torn the binding. There is also some bruising to the top of the spine. In a good unclipped dust jacket, with bruising to the spine and a small tear to the back flap to match the bump on the board.
About the book
Two weeks before D-Day, the French Resistance attacks a chateau containing a telephone exchange vital to German communications but the building is heavily guarded and the attack fails disastrously.
Flick Clairet, a young British secret agent, proposes a daring new plan: she will parachute into France with an all-woman team known as the 'Jackdaws' and they will penetrate the chateau in disguise. But, unknown to Flick, Rommel has assigned a brilliant, ruthless Intelligence colonel, Dieter Franck, to crush the Resistance. And Dieter is on Flick's trail . . .
From Ken Follett, the master storyteller and bestselling author of Eye of the Needle and Code to Zero comes this exciting thriller, set against the menacing backdrop of the Second World War and crackling with suspense and action.
