Burma, 1942: In the face of a relentless Japanese advance, the British Army is in headlong retreat.
Given command of a squad of defaulters, Corporal Charlie Torrance is tasked with escorting a notorious political prisoner to captivity in India. But a Japanese intelligence agent has joined forces with Burmese independence fighters intent on rescuing their comrade.
And it’s starting to look as though there could be a traitor in Torrance’s squad...
As the British Empire crumbles, Torrance will be forced to question everything he’s fighting for when he makes a bloody last stand in the sultry Burmese jungle.
Inspired by actual events, Torrance: Betrayal in Burma is a blistering adventure in the best traditions of Alistair MacLean and Bernard Cornwell.
