Twelve hundred British soldiers are isolated and waiting to die on the small island of Kheros, off the Turkish coast. Their lives can be saved if only the long-range, large-caliber, and catastrophically accurate guns of Navarone are silenced before the British Royal Navy arrives.
Manned by a mixed garrison of Germans and Italians, Navarone is a grim iron fortress perched high atop an island ringed by cliffs. Captain Keith Mallory and his small, handpicked team of saboteurs must scale the sheer cliffs and infiltrate the German base to blow up the massive guns.
"Action sustained at high pitch. From the outset, there is a feeling of suspense...an insistently gripping tale." โ Scotsman
"Its strength comes from the speed of its narrative, its vivid creation of tensions, and its power in handling descriptions of action." โ Evening Standard
