Biggles has a cold war.November 1939. The Winter War between the
Finns and the Soviets has begun, and Finland has called for
international support. Biggles, Algy and Ginger have volunteered to
help, and fly reconnaissance missions over the country on the
lookout for Soviet troops and aircraft. Quite by chance on one such
flight, Biggles spots a lone figure at death's door in the snow,
and lands to investigate. The man is Petolski, a Polish scientist.
His plane crashed on the Finland-Russia border while he was trying
to escape Occupied Poland with seven years' worth of experimental
aircraft research. Rather than let it fall into enemy hands, he has
hidden it somewhere near the downed plane. The research cannot fall
into enemy hands, and Biggles is ordered to retrieve it at all
costs. But the Russians have found out about the research as well,
and a party led by Biggles' nemesis, Erich von Stalhein, is already
looking for it. The race is on! Strap in for a classic Biggles
cat-and-mouse chase in the ice and snow of Finland. Perfect for
fans of Derek Robinson and Max Hennessy.
