What to expect
He stared at the unfamiliar watch on his wrist. Three hours ago he had stood on English soil. Three hours ago he had been Martin Hearne, British Intelligence agent. Now he was in Nazi-occupied Brittany, posing as Bertrand Corlay, with the Frenchman’s life reduced to headings in his memory.

The Queen of Spy Writers returns in a stunning series collecting all of her greatest works! Titan kicks off with Assignment in Brittany; the gripping tale of an undercover operative deep in Nazi-occupied France.
Critics Review
“Helen MacInnes can hang her cloak and dagger right up there with Eric Ambler and Graham Greene”
“More class than most adventure writers accumulate in a lifetime.”
“Helen MacInnes is totally original. No one writing today creates more realistic, more credible characters than she does.”
“The queen of spy writers.”
“Another sure and smooth synthesis of espionage, romance, and man hunting.”
