Jackdaws by Ken Follett is an irresistible novel of the French Resistance, love, courage and revenge set in the Second World War, read by Emilia Fox, who expertly brings the story to life.
A Failed Mission
Two weeks before D-Day, the French Resistance try to destroy a telephone exchange vital to Nazi communications. Heavily defended, the mission fails disastrously.
A Daring Plan
With invasion looming, Flick Clairet, a British secret agent, proposes a daring but perilous new plan. She, along with an all-female team â the Jackdaws â will infiltrate and neutralize the exchange before Allied Forces land in France.
A Race Against Time
However, unbeknownst to Flick, Rommel has assigned a brilliant spy-catcher â Dieter Franck â to crush the French Resistance. And now Franck is closing in . . .

En av favorit författare levererar igen. Bra engelsk upplÀsare.

Hyfsad bok men upplÀsaren förstör upplevelsen genom att spegla det som sÀgs pÄ franska o tyska, men Àr skrivet pÄ engelska, med löjliga brytningar som hör hemma i nÄgon komedi, inte i en spionroman. Enormt störande liksom hennes felaktiga uttal av staden Reims, som förekommer typ 100 gÄnger.
