The Key to Rebecca by Ken Follet

The Key to Rebecca

By Ken Follet

Set in the North African Desert in 1942, Wolff's mission is to steal military plans and send them to Rommel. The codes needed are buried deep in the pages of a novel. The pace is fast. This book is full of chase scenes, a race against death and a speeding train. Adventure meets romance to create a tension that builds to a breathtaking and explosive end. Not one to read at bedtime, unless you plan to be up all night.
