An amazing tale of a Coastal Forces officer captured when his Motor Gun Boat was burnt from under him during a battle with German e-Boats in 1943. He was picked up by a German trawler, along with his fellow survivors, and taken to Germany as a Prisoner of War. Using a level of audacity and sheer courage that makes many WWII escape moves look tame, he arranged the escape of a number of his fellow prisoners, and himself. The tales of daring do and deception as he brazenly strolls through occupied towns en route back to Britain make for compelling reading.
