The Mediterranean war hangs in the balance…
Autumn, 1942
The pride of the Italian navy is lying at anchor in Genoa harbour. It is the mighty aircraft Aquila, capable of tipping the whole balance of the Mediterranean War.
As the Allied invasion armada steams across the Atlantic towards north-west Africa for Operation Torch, this huge ship must be prevented from sailing at all costs.
It is up to Commander Hetherington of the Royal Navy to ensure she stays put – whether above sea or beneath it. And he only has three men to depend on, who are fighting on different sides.
Assembling a team of special agents, Hetherington sets the wheels in motion for Operation Snatch.
And with Allied forces closing in and German forces deserting Italy, can Hetherington and his team stay one step ahead of the enemy? Or will the Germans deal one final blow to leave their mark…?
EAGLE’S BLOOD is an authentic wartime naval thriller: military action and adventure during the Second World War.
