In 1941, Jack Tanner reaches Crete after the evacuation from Greece and finds Allied forces preparing for a German airborne assault. The island’s defence depends on scattered units, limited equipment and commanders uncertain where the main attack will fall.

Tanner becomes involved with Cretan resistance and intelligence networks while German paratroopers seize airfields and villages. A local betrayal threatens both soldiers and civilians, forcing him to fight a rear-guard action across the island. Honour becomes a practical obligation to people whose homes have become the battlefield.
