Revenge!

‘Whiting… is a skilled and prolific writer’ - The Spectator

Germany, October 1945.

The war is over; the SAS is disbanded.

But Major Rory O'Sullivan is still determined to trace the mysterious Dr Barsch, infamous for his horrific crimes which included murdering and torturing SAS prisoners taken in France.

Hell-bent on seeking revenge, O’Sullivan will stop at nothing to find this despicable war criminal.

Funded directly by the newly deposed Churchill, two jeep-loads of the former SAS set off on the hunt for the wanted man.

But a secret SS organisation — ‘The Spider’ — is working against them.

Determined that Dr Barsch and other war criminals should escape Allied justice, they use any means - fair or foul - in an attempt to thwart these secret hunters.

But these Neo-Nazis are not alone in attempting to stop the secret SAS hunters finding their quarry.

General ‘Blood and Guts’ Patton, the governor of the US Zone of Occupation, believes that he can only stop a Communist take-over by employing ex-Nazis to run the civilian administration.

He orders limey-hating, pro-German Colonel Helmut Ziller to find and stop the SAS.

With multiple forces working against them, can O’Sullivan and his team trace Dr Barsch in time?

And what price will they have to pay to exact their revenge?
