Kill Rommel

November 1941.

The Western Desert, North Africa.

The British army is despairing of General Rommel, The Desert Fox, commander of the German Afrika Korps.

Rommel is a brilliant German commander in battle, and as he inflicts defeat after defeat on the British forces Winston Churchill decides that man known as The Desert Fox must die.

Colonel Geoffrey Keyes, an ambitious commando, is given the simple Kill Rommel.

But Keyes has a dangerous rival in Captain David Stirling, the founder of the Special Air Service (the SAS), who is also seeking fame for himself and his unit.

After a series of desperate adventures the two rival forces are finally in position.

In a battle which is as much against each other as against the German enemy, who will now carry out the murder, Keyes or Stirling?

In this clever mix of fact and fiction Charles Whiting starts a major new series detailing the rise of SAS over half a century to become the world’s most elite and feared military force.

'A top-drawer military thriller that combines authenticity and action in equal measure.' - Tom Kasey, best-selling author of 'Trade Off'.
