VICTORY HANGS IN THE BALANCE
1944. In the weeks leading up to D-Day, the Allies are disguising their invasion plans with elaborate decoy ships and planes. If they can land a force on mainland Europe, they will gain the upper hand in a war that has ravaged the world for years, and can then take the fight to the Nazi menace.
A COLD-BLOODED KILLER
His weapon is the stiletto; his code name: The Needle. He is Hitler's prize undercover agent - a ruthless, professional murderer. In England, he uncovers the Allies' D-Day plans, but his cover is blown in the process.
A DEADLY CHASE
Leaving a trail of bodies in his wake and with MI5 on his tail, The Needle ruthlessly races to a U-boat that is waiting to convey him and his critical message to Germany. But he hasn't planned for a storm-battered island and the remarkable young woman who lives there . . .
