Book excerpt: May, 1944 In occupied France, Field Marshal Erwin Rommel is in residence at the Normandy chateau of the Ronsceville family. Following his defeat at the hands of General Montgomery at El Alamein in the autumn of 1942 and the resultant loss of Africa, Rommel still believes that the Allies could be defeated in the Endkampf, the final battle. Rommel's present task is to ensure that the so-called Atlantic Wall is strong enough to throw the Allies back into the sea once the invasion comes. As he knows some time soon, it will come... But General Montgomery isn't finished with Rommel just yet. He has his own plan to defeat the Axis powers. The plan is code-named Overlord but before it can be successful, General Montgomery has one vital task for Callum Douglas of the Special Air Service. Only Rommel might have the courage and skill to destroy Overlord and Montgomery knows this cannot be allowed to happen, whatever the cost. So Callum Douglas finds himself with his most dangerous target yet - Rommel himself... Target - Rommel is a tense historical thriller filled with action and adventure.
