About this title

Review:

"Any book by Nevil Shute is a delight" (Punch)

"That shattering, unaffected, literary style of his is masterly" (H.E. Bates)

"There is a quality of golden light that hangs over his books. That comes, I think, from his sense of order and from his own vast, undemonstrative solicitude" (John Ezard Guardian)

Book Description:

When Peter Moran picks up a man on the roadside while driving through a bitter rainy night on the South Downs, he embarks upon an adventure that will lead him into treasonous international plots, flying adventures and tests of both his bravery and his loyalty.
