Betrayed by his lover, beaten and almost broken by his captors, Ellis Jackson escapes from the Viet Cong with his best friend James Maxwell St. Clair. Dodging bullets, they finally break free from a living hell.
Some years later, back in England, Ellis wakes to find himself holding a 12-bore shot gun surrounded by staring faces. In the other room his mistress, together with James are both dead.
Has Ellis Jackson finally succumbed to the madness he first endured at the hands of the Viet Cong? Or is he being set up by a greater power than himself?

" Another action filled Higgins at his best. Very entertaining. "

" Grim and engaging. The characters are Compelling, excepting the few irrelevant scenes where they are superhuman in order to overcome obstacles that aren't central to the story. "
— Steven, 11/30/2012 -
" A real disappointment from the author of The Eagle Has Landed. It's Higgins's early work, after all. Sometimes the evolving events seemed too predictable and artificial. However, the plot itself is original, that's why two stars "

" When Ellis returns from prison camp, he thinks he is safe, but he soon begins to realize that his former captors still have a nightmare grip on his mind, a realization that pushes him to the edge of insanity. Reissue. "
