Eye of the Needle

Eye of the Needle, Ken Follett's historical thriller, is a heart-racing 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.

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.

A Deadly Chase: Leaving a trail of bodies, The Needle 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.

The Key to Rebecca

The Key to Rebecca is a gripping espionage thriller set during the Second World War.

A Ruthless Spy: 1942. Alex Wolff’s goal is Cairo. Following a relentless trek across the Sahara, he arrives with a copy of Daphne du Maurier’s Rebecca, a lethal blade, and a trail of bodies. Known as the ‘Sphinx’, Wolff is a Nazi spy with a brutal desire to succeed.

A Failing Campaign: The British campaign in North Africa hangs in the balance. Led by Rommel, the Germans are closing in, and the Sphinx’s reports on British troop movements are giving them the edge. Intelligence officer Major William Vandam is tasked with hunting down the Sphinx.

A Deadly Chase: Vandam enlists the help of courtesan Elene Fontana, who agrees to ensnare the spy in exchange for a better life in Palestine. Can they catch the master spy before he uncovers Cairo’s secrets?

Triple

Triple is the story of the most successful espionage coup of the twentieth century.

A Frightening Discovery: 1968. The fledgling nation of Israel is threatened when intelligence services find out that Egypt is months away from developing nuclear weapons. An untimely end awaits unless a source of uranium for Israeli bombs can be obtained in secrecy.

A Daring Mission: Working alone, Israeli agent Nat Dickstein concocts an ingenious scenario for the biggest, quietest hijacking in history, made difficult by factions trying to stop him.

Time is Running Out: Dickstein plans to steal the uranium and fool the Russian KGB, Egyptian Intelligence, and the Fedayeen. As the nuclear arms race escalates, the fate of millions hangs in the balance in this fictionalized account of one of the best-kept secrets of the twentieth century.
