J. P. Cross Bücher

The first time the voice of the Gurkha soldier has been heard at length.

It is 1950s and the Malayan Emergency and the British battle with Communist terrorists hiding deep in the jungle. When a British Gurkha captain deserts to the guerrillas, a fellow British Gurkha officer is despatched with five Gurkhas to hunt him down and the chase through pathless jungle becomes a race against time and a contest of deadly jungle warfare skills.

This is the astonishing tale of two episodes in the life of Colonel J P Cross, jungle fighter and linguist extraordinaire.
