About this listen

The RAF squadron returns in a thrilling wartime adventure! Perfect for fans of Derek Robinson, James Holland, Frank Barnard, and Jack Higgins.

They refuse to be lambs led to the slaughter . . .

June, 1940

After fourteen months of flying, John Noble is now a capable and experienced Fighter Pilot. His squadron has successfully survived the intense period of aerial warfare over Dunkirk, but now new challenges are facing them from the Luftwaffe. And there is a major issue with their leadership.

415 Squadron's CO, Wing Commander Christopher Bland, has shown that he is clearly not up to the task he's been given. And if Bland is the one to lead them in the Battle of Britain, John knows the outcome could be disastrous.

But with waves of inbound hostile aircraft relentlessly attacking, there is limited time to raise the issue. The Battle of Britain is underway and if nothing changes, the outcome for the pilots could be nothing short of a slaughter . . .

Can the 415s defy the odds, or will this battle be their last . . . ?
