Have you read South by Java Head? That shit is awesome. For a 10 year old, it's straight visceral. For some reason I was just thinking about Ken Follett who was Welsh and wrote historical thrillers and it reminded me of MacLean, who was Scottish and wrote historical thrillers. If anything you've probably read the Navarone books, as in the (great) Peck movie.You know what's a good book? Eye of the Needle by Ken Follett. Strong female protagonist in WWII against a Nazi spy. There are some bits that don't make sense but you give it a bye because it's just a tight little tale. That's a great book.
