Flaming Sword
By Michael Asher
Egypt, October 1942.
The battle for North Africa rages along the coast . . . Punching their way deep behind enemy lines, the newly formed SAS carries out daring raids against the Germans.
Lieutenant Tom Caine leads a squad of SAS men on a desperate mission into hostile territory. His brief – to sabotage a terrible weapon being secretly developed by the Nazis in the desolate Libyan hills . . . if he fails, the Axis forces will be unstoppable.
Caine faces the full force of German military might, but what he doesn’t know is that there is a traitor amongst his own men. Ultimately, his fate will rest in the hands of one woman, Special Ops agent Betty Nolan.
Only one thing is for certain in this war – who dares wins . . .
