Now Quiller must find the group's station in Germany. Along the way, however, he is abducted, tortured, reprogrammed, doped and almost blown up. The resilient prober, though, will show the evil Neo-Nazi leader Oktober that he has more lives than a cat and more tricks up his sleeve than anyone this side of James Bond.
