| book description |

‘Tense, marvellously detailed’ – The Sunday TimesEye of the Needle, Ken Follett’s breakthrough international bestseller, is a heart-racing, exciting tale about the fate of the Second World War as it rests in the hands of a master spy, his opponent and one brave woman. Written when he was only twenty-seven, it launched the career of master storyteller Ken Follett, and was later adapted for the screen by Richard Marquand, starring Donald Sutherland. *** 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 upperhand 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 . . . *** ‘Really thrilling’ – The New York Times Book Review ‘An absolutely terrific thriller, so pulse-pounding, so ingenious in its plotting and so frighteningly realistic that you simply cannot stop reading’ – Publishers Weekly ‘Top-notch suspense . . . a terrific thriller . . . spellbinding’ – Miami Herald ‘Great . . . one of the twelve best thrillers from the last fifty years’ – Rocky Mountain News ‘Extraordinarily satisfying . . . a truly suspenseful novel . . . heart-stopping, nerve-freezing terror’ – Los Angeles Times ‘A spy novel of the highest order’ – The Baltimore Sun
