Praise for Jack Higgins

“A seasoned pro...Mr. Higgins knows how to tell a story!”—The New York Times Book Review

“Jack Higgins has written some of the best suspense fiction of the past fifty years.”—The San Diego Union-Tribune

“When it comes to thriller writers, one name stands well above the crowd—Jack Higgins.”—Associated Press

“Higgins makes the pages fly.”—New York Daily News

“Jack Higgins is one of the best-selling authors of popular fiction in the world, often considered the architect of the modern thriller.”—The Huffington Post

From the Publisher

Higgins's bestselling 1975 novel has lost none of its punch, thanks to Christopher Cazenove's superb delivery. The German plot to send paratroopers into a small village to kidnap/kill Winston Churchill gets new life, thanks to a superb audio rendition. Each character is individually voiced: the devious Himmler, the IRA revolutionary, the young girl whom he romances, the local traitor (female), the German Steiner, who speaks perfect English, the stuffy British nobility, the priest, who is young at the time but returns many years later as a sick old man. Action alternates with pastoral village scenes, sometimes without much pause. This last quibble aside, this is a winner. J.B.G. © AudioFile 2006, Portland, Maine
