Summer, 1940. Britain stands alone against the Nazi forces gathering just across the Channel. Invasion seems imminent. In those months of the Battle of Britain, with the Blitz becoming a nightly horror in the major cities, one man represents the unquenchable spirit of England. Winston Churchill, the recently appointed Prime Minister.
The German leaders hatch their scheme—kill Churchill and the heart will be torn from England. Their plans reach John Standish—leader of 'The Killers'. After their tragic adventures in Paris and Warsaw (as told in To Win And To Lose) this secret group of criminals and ex-criminals again combine against the Nazis, with the vital aim of saving the Prime Minister from assassination. The trail of murder leads Standish to occupied Holland and back to bomb-torn London for the chilling climax. On the way, there is a little love. But, where Standish goes, there is always death. Bloody and bizarre!
