Churchill's band of brothers : WWII's most daring D-Day mission and the hunt to take down Hitler's fugitive war criminals / Damien Lewis.

Lewis, Damien, (author.).

Summary:

"On the night of June 13th, 1944, a twelve-man SAS unit parachuted into occupied France. The SAS patrol was ultimately betrayed, captured, and tortured by the Gestapo before facing execution in a dark French woodland on Hitler's personal orders. Miraculously, two of the condemned men managed to escape, triggering one of the most secretive Nazi-hunting operations ever, as the SAS vowed to track down every one of the war criminals who had murdered their brothers in arms ... all with Churchill's covert backing-- Provided by publisher.
