There’s an old Army saying: “Never volunteer for anything.” But Steven Carter did, and it changed the course of his life forever. From the icy wilderness of Nazi-occupied Norway to the treacherous alleyways of the Channel Islands, and finally the blood-soaked cliffs of Normandy, Carter leads his elite team of British Commandos on some of the most dangerous missions of World War II. Whether cut off behind enemy lines, betrayed from within, or climbing into the teeth of German artillery, Carter never backs down.
