Review title: Higgins has done a poor rewrite of The Eagle has Landed.
Product review: I love W.W.II thrillers, but each of Jack Higgins' books seems to get progressively sillier. All the men in this one are tall, brave, noble, taciturn, multi-lingual, etc., which is par for the genre, but they also are made to follow a plotline which is preposterous. Most of the action takes place as a kind of respite from having dinners in famous hotels. When not drinking or eating in these well paneled watering holes, they go out to dispatch an enemy or two, each time picking up another medal as if it were a sort of tip. This goes on in a kind of repeating cycle, until, half way through, Higgins seemed to remember he needs a climax and recycles his Eagle Has Landed bit. The first time he did this schtick, it was good; this time it's just a way to get to the end. Shabby. Where's Forsythe when we need him?
