Jack Higgins. Tome 1

July 1940. England prepares for invasion, all eyes focused on its borders.

 But such focus inevitably leaves gaps elsewhere, and Hitler sees an opportunity to carry out an audacious plot that would change the course of the war.

 The Duke of Windsor, brother to King George VI and former ruler of the United Kingdom in his own right, is a target.

 Hitler's intention: to kidnap him and hold him ransom - the ultimate leverage against an embattled and beleaguered British government.

 But can it really be done? And who amongst the German secret services is audacious enough to set a trap to catch a king?

To Catch a King

SEAN DILLON'S CHOICE: LIFE IN PRISON OR A SUICIDE MISSION.

 A diver discovers a priceless treasure off Thunder Point: a German U-boat containing proof that Martin Bormann escaped from Hitler's bunker, bearing the most explosive secrets of the Third Reich.

 Among them: the names of British Nazi sympathisers - some of them pillars of the establishment - and the devastating document known as the Windsor Protocol.

 For the sake of national security, the U-boat must be destroyed, no questions asked.

 Sean Dillon, Britain's most wanted terrorist, is about to be made an offer he cannot refuse.

oeil du typhon: roman

From the master of suspense, a fierce thriller of terrorism, murder and revenge.

 In Higgins' acclaimed bestseller DARK JUSTICE, intelligence operative Sean Dillon and his colleagues in Britain and the United States beat back a terrible enemy, but at an equally terrible cost. One of them was shot, another run down in the street. Both were expected to survive - but only one of them does.

 As Detective Superintendent Hannah Bernstein of Special Branch lies recuperating in the hospital, a dark shadow from their past, scarred deep by hatred, steals across the room and finishes the job.

 Consumed by grief and rage, Dillon, Blake, Ferguson and all who loved Hannah swear vengeance, no matter where it takes them. But they have no idea of the searing journey upon which they are about to embark - nor of the war which will change them all.
