Noć lisice

Noć lisice

Jack Higgins

Tijekom Drugog svjetskog rata američki pukovnik s tajnama o invaziji na Normandiju nasuka se na okupiranom otoku. Britanski agent mora ga spasiti ili spriječiti da padne u ruke Nijemcima.

Noć lisice Jacka Higginsa napeti je ratno-špijunski roman smješten u 1944. godinu, neposredno prije savezničke invazije na Normandiju. Nakon što njemačka podmornica potopi američki konvoj u La Mancheu, jedan od preživjelih – pukovnik Hugh Kelso – spašava se doplivavši do otoka Jerseyja, tada pod njemačkom okupacijom. Kelso ima dragocjene podatke o točnom planu invazije, te zapovjedništvo u Londonu strahuje da bi njegovo zarobljavanje moglo ugroziti cijelu operaciju Overlord. Stoga britanska tajna služba šalje svog najboljeg agenta, Harryja Martina, bivšeg profesora filozofije s Oxforda, koji se prerušen u časnika SS-a mora iskrcati na otok. Njegova je misija izvući Kelsa – ili ga, ako to ne uspije, ušutkati. Situaciju dodatno komplicira dolazak dvojnika feldmaršala Rommela, „Lisice pustinje“, uključenog u zavjeru protiv Hitlera. Roman spaja napetost, akciju i moralne dileme, pokazujući koliko rat briše granicu između dužnosti i savjesti.
