In his most desperate moment, Adolph Hitler issues an impossible order to a disgraced war hero and his commandos. The mission: invade the very heart of England and kidnap Winston Churchill -- or kill him. Far from the thunder of war, in a quiet seaside village called Studley Constable, a beautiful widow and a cultured IRA assassin undertake preparations for the ultimate act of treachery. On November 6, 1943, Berlin gets the coded message: "The Eagle has Landed". Tightly plotted and bristling with suspense, The Eagle has Landed is a masterpiece of espionage and commando action, a searing drama of the courage and deceit of those who paid the price for Hitler's most daring plan.
