The endless jungle. A relentless foe. No way out. From the bestselling author of the Kemp archery novels.
World War II, Malaya, 1942: Charlie Torrance, a private in the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders, is plunged into the maelstrom of war after a blitzkrieg Japanese invasion. Suddenly, a sweltering but otherwise uneventful posting in the Malayan jungle becomes a living nightmare.
But when his group stumbles upon some mysterious documents, their plight takes a turn for the worse. Torrance is pursued remorselessly by the indomitable Captain Mitsumoto, who will stop at nothing to retrieve the papers.
As the British Empire crumbles amidst the mosquitos, rubber plantations and whip cracking bullets, even surviving will feel like victory...
A stunning, brutal, blood-soaked military thriller, The Name of Valour is an electrifying tale, perfect for fans of Jack Higgins, Mark Sullivan, and Alistair MacLean.
