West Wind Clear

By V M Knox

Book Overview

By late 1941, the Pacific is a very different place from the previous year. Japan threatens and vast numbers of Imperial Army spies have infiltrated throughout the Pacific Island in readiness for conflict. Just as he is preparing to leave Australia and return to Britain, Major Clement Wisdom is seconded to lead a small guerrilla force. His mission: to rescue an important man from Singapore and take him, and the vital secret he is carrying, back to Australia. While enroute to the island bastion of the British Far East Fleet, Clement learns that Malaya, Singapore, and Pearl Harbour have all been bombed and war with Japan is declared. With no up-to-date intelligence on the volatile region, and leading a group of men he barely knows, much less trusts, Clement's order leave him with no option but to proceed. His fears are compounded when one of his team dies in an apparent suicide and it seems likely that there is an enemy spy on board; one who will kill to evade discovery and who is motivated by that oldest of reasons; revenge.
