The situation is dire for British forces in the Mediterranean. Their ships, with no air cover, have to run the gauntlet of 2,000 German bombers; and can only lick their wounds under cover of darkness.
Nick Everard commands the destroyer Tuareg as it ventures well inside Stuka territory. There they are ordered to evacuate a body of troops, plus an Australian field hospital and thirty nurses, from right under the Germans' noses.
The soon-decimated flotilla has to make it round the Aegean, then out of Crete - but only a miracle can save them!
Last Lift from Cretecombines gripping personal drama with incredible naval action, and is a must-read for fans of Alistair MacLean and C. S. Forester.
