Crete, 1941
Greece has been invaded by the Germans, and the enemy has now turned its attention to Crete.
With the island in grave danger of falling, Allied forces have been posted to the island in great number, Sub-Lieutenant Bill Tanner and Midshipman (A) Brander among them.
But with Germany mounting its first ever airborne assault, victory cannot be taken for granted as German paratroopers fall from the sky in droves.
As one of World War II’s most dramatic battles is played out, Allied forces struggle desperately to withstand the onslaught … and disaster looms for Bill and ‘Brandy’ when their aircraft is shot down.
Will the two of them live to tell the tale? And can the Allies prevail against unprecedented hostilities?
Or does a humiliating defeat await them?
