The Glasshouse Gang
(1967)(The first book in the Glasshouse Gang series)
A novel by Gordon Landsborough
The Glasshouse screws came for Offer in his cell in the early morning, two of them in steel-tipped boots, with swagger sticks and their own fists.
They left him senseless, a mauled and bleeding heap as they had left so many others. But even as he struggled back to consciousness, Offer was planning his revenge.
He organised his campaign with military precision. With British arms and British vehicles, and the plunder of British stores and depots, he would wage his own war in the desert, and his enemies would not be Rommel’s Afrika Korps, but the British Army...
“An exiting, tough, fast and moving novel” – Times Literary Supplement
“It has everything…supremely good characterisation, descriptive brilliance, and masterly in its simplicity" - Birmingham Post
"A punchy tale coupled with plenty of action - an engaging read!" - Philip McCormac
