Toll for the Brave

By: Jack Higgins

Narrated by: Guy Mott

From the first name in heart pounding thriller fiction.

Ellis Jackson woke up hugging a twelve-bore shotgun. In the next room, his mistress and his best friend lay naked on the bed, their heads blown to pulp. Back in England at last, Ellis Jackson had finally cracked.

Active combat, a Viet Cong prison camp and the callous treachery of his lover and interrogator, Madam Ny, had taken their toll. Ellis Jackson was out of his mind. Or was he?

Maybe it would all have been easier to take if he really had been mad

I miss Jack Higgins

i really couldn't believe that Jack Higgins was the author! I've read a lot of his books and enjoyed them all, this was so different and not really feasible.

Jack Higgins at his finest

A great psychological, military thriller. JH is the best at pulse-pushing intrigue and action. Toll for the Brave is the only weakness: title makes little sense. Toll for the Faithful is more like it.
