Part three in Death or Glory series, Highroad to Hell is Michael Asher's latest Second World War adventure.

With Asher's insider knowledge of the SAS he brings to life the action of the battlefield in this fast-paced and compelling novel following Captain Tom Caine.

Tunisia 1943 - the Allies' advance is halted by determined Axis forces.

The 8th Army has no choice but to outflank the enemy along their impenetrable Mareth line in the hellish Matmata hills. On a mission to safeguard this movement, Captain Tom Caine's SAS patrol is diverted by a strange emergency signal that draws them to a derelict aircraft and a mysterious black box.

Besieged by a Nazi Death's Head unit intent on retrieving the box and betrayed by a comrade who steals it, Caine must make a choice.

Should he pursue the stolen object or stick to his original task and face almost certain death?

The entire campaign rests on his decision. Michael Asher's third Death or Glory novel, Highroad to Hell, will have you gripped to the very last page. Breathtaking bravery, astonishing feats of endurance, raids and battles described with terrific immediacy and pace.

Compelling and definitive . . . will surely not be bettered - Sunday Telegraph Detailed, scathingly honest.
