Book excerpt: IN THE HEAT OF BATTLE YOU HAVE TWO CHOICES 'DEATH OR GLORY' Libya 1942 - Rommel's Africa Korps is sweeping across Northern Africa. The ragged Allied forces engage the enemy in brutal fire-fights on the scorched desert sands. Meanwhile, the Allied commander-in-chief sends a desperate coded message to the Prime Minister - the courier is First Officer Madeleine Rose, WRNS - codename Runefish. When Runefish's plane is shot down deep behind enemy lines - GHQ must send in the commandos to pull her out. It looks like no more than a deadly fool's errand - and the man they choose is given one option: take the mission or face court martial. Battle-hardened Sgnt Tom Caine is a first class soldier who struggles with obeying orders. He must lead his small squad of specialist commandos into the hornet's nest - on a bloody mission that could change the outcome of the war . . .
