Book description
North Africa, 23 October 1942. The eve of El Alamein, the battle that
turned the Second World War. Two RAF fighter pilots will play their
part: the Englishman Kit Curtis in an unarmed photo-reconnaissance
Spitfire, and Ossie Wolf, American volunteer. Since they flew together
during the Siege of Malta, both men have taken different paths, Curtis
following his conscience, shaken by the human cost of war, Wolf
insouciant and headstrong, killer in the air, liability on the ground.
But Alamein unites them in a desperate struggle for survival as Curtis,
downed by a Luftwaffe ace, finds Wolf on a mission that could change the
course of war. And together they encounter the Desert Fox himself. TO
PLAY THE FOX is a heart-pounding thriller of non-stop action and
suspense, a triumph of the unexpected twist, a tour-de-force that will
leave you breathless.
