Duncan Falconer is a former SBS operative turned thriller writer. General Non-Fiction
Synopsis
Formed by Churchill during the Second World War, the Special Operations Executive (SOE) sent hundreds of specially-trained agents deep undercover in Europe and beyond. A remarkable collection of brave and resourceful characters, the agents were involved in every type of clandestine activity and succeeded in inflicting damage on German forces from behind enemy lines. Piecing together the extraordinary stories and daring exploits of ten male agents who made up these little-known war heroes, Binney uses previously unpublished original documents, training reports, coded telegrams and internal SOE correspondence. These are tales of great bravery and terrible risks; of narrow escapes and ill-fated assignments; of men whose valour and determination were crucial to the outcome of the war.
