Product Description
Long-awaited follow-up to A Cage of Eagles and A Forest of Eagles: more stories from Grizedale Hall POW camp in the Lake District It is 1945 and the end of war spells new problems for Otto Kruger and his fellow officers, now being held as ?special category? prisoners of war. What the British have in store for them and why they were not sent to Canada like all the other prisoners of war is a mystery. Some are impatient to be repatriated. Others have nothing to return home to because their beloved country is devastated with half of it in Soviet hands, homes destroyed and families wiped out. Some, such as the V2 rocket engineer Eric Lohmann, have terrible secrets that they have to conceal from the British or face the gallows. Mark Schiller, a Luftwaffe pilot partially blinded when the canopy of his Me262 jet fighter was shattered, has no desire to return home just yet, having learned about the pioneering work of an eye surgeon in London. Mark takes advantage of the more lax security at Grizedale Hall to escape with the intention of tracking down the remarkable Harold Ridley and pleading with him to perform his miracle operation.
