Publisher's Summary
Eye of the Needle, Ken Follett's historical thriller, is a heart-racingly exciting tale about the fate of the war resting in the hands of a master spy, his opponent and one brave woman.
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 upper hand in a war that has ravaged the world for years, and take the fight to the Nazi menace.
A Cold-Blooded Killer
His weapon is the stiletto, his codename: The Needle. He is Hitler’s prize undercover agent – a ruthless and 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, The Needle ruthlessly races to a U-boat waiting to convey him and his critical message to Germany, with MI5 on his tail. But he hasn’t planned for a storm-battered island and the remarkable young woman who lives there . . .

Gripping
It was so real and not padded. It was so good that it could have been a true story!

So intense!
Such a good story and always kept me engaged. It felt a bit strange as for some unknown reason I was rooting for ‘Henry’ throughout

Wow!
I’m late discovering Ken Follett.
What a storyteller!!
Gripping. Entertaining. Also beautifully narrated by Samuel West who brings Follett’s marvellous writing to life for the listener.
Excited to have so many more of his novels to catch up with.

A plot that retained my interest and some well drawn characters.
The depiction of war-torn London was very well described and the well developed characters held my interest throughout the narrative.
