Book excerpt: This is the fourth book in the adventures of Admiral Sir Geoffrey Cockburn RN. In this volume, however, we go back in time to when 'Cocky' Cockburn was a mere Lieutenant during the cold War of the 1950s. While serving in the aircraft carrier HMS Cerberus, he becomes friends with another Lieutenant, a Fleet Air Arm Observer called David Phillips. After being kidnapped and freed during a Far East cruise, Cocky becomes a secret agent spying on the Russians. The story moves rapidly from Gibraltar, Malta, Singapore and Australia and thence to Japan with many twists and turns all the way. Readers of the three previous books in this series will be delighted to find how the mature Admiral reacted to danger when he was a young and relatively inexperienced naval officer.
