From the carnage of war a new hero is born. 1920. The slaughter of World War One is over, but already secret little wars are breaking out all over 'New Europe'. Sub-Lieutenant de Vere Smith VC, at twenty the youngest Victoria Cross holder in the British Empire, is asked by the head of the Secret Service to help convoy arms to the Poles, under threat from Russia and Germany. Jumping at the chance, Smith refits his old patrol boat, Swordfish and sets off for the Baltic. But enemy agents are everywhere, determined to stop Swordfish before its mission can even begin... The first thrilling adventure in the Common Smith VC series, full of subterfuge and daring, from a master of the action novel. (Description courtesy of Penguin Random House.)
