Summary: "From the heart of Nazi Germany, across the flat countryside and through the silent towns of occupied Belgium, rumble railway wagons loaded with long crates. Their contents are unknown, but terrifying rumours of a new menace to Britain's security, reach Intelligence chiefs in London. Only an experienced agent has any chance of discovering the innermost secrets of "Project 38". That man is Robin Sherwood. Picked because of his knowledge of the country, he is warned that this mission must succeed. Moving at a fast pace, from an explosive opening to a tremendous climax, this is a war story at its best - full of the action, suspense and intrigue which appeal to every boy."
