One last mission, but this time it's personal...In the Spring of
1920 the Mexican revolution was almost over. Just across the border
in Texas was Martin Falconer, barely out of his teens yet already a
veteran airman. He had only just escaped from the Russian Civil War
with his three friends, Slingsby, 'Puddy' Pudhovkin and 'Tommy'
Tucker, and they were all looking forward to a little peace. Martin
had cabled his girlfriend Charley, who was in Mexico with her
father, to come and meet him. But his hopes are shattered when they
arrive in the border town of Camarillo to collect Charley, and the
four airmen are caught in the middle of a battle. When the dust
settles, they discover that the retreating Mexican bandits had
taken Charley as a hostage. Martin tries to enlist official aid,
but without success. It was up to them - and all they had to use
against a desperate band of rebels were two battered aeroplanes, a
broken down Avro and a de Havilland with broken wings. This will be
his most challenging flight. The absolutely thrilling finale to the
Martin Falconer thrillers, a tour de force of wartime storytelling,
perfect for fans of Alastair MacLean, Alexander Fullerton and David
Black.
