Samenvatting
"The Locust Hawks" is book two of the “Base 211” trilogy that follows the continuing adventures of two allied commandos who are survivors of an attack on a secret Nazi base in Antarctica. Their journey begins with a crash landing in the mountains of Patagonia from where they travel through South America up to New York, eliminating enemy targets along the way. It is a manhunt in which they are on the run from British, American and Nazi forces who all wish to silence them, as they try to escape and reach the apparent sanctuary at the end of the line. This subject has been thoroughly researched over many years so that the narrative is reflective of the historical context, accuracy of places visited, and detail of lesser known facts and conspiracies of Nazi involvement in South America at this time. The author is currently working on the concluding part of the trilogy, “Return to Base 211”, as well as two further companion stories that are all set in the same world.
