The Cause

Summer, 1942.

First Commandos Captain Harry Curtis is a war hero.

After being one of the lucky few to escape the horrendous air raid on St Nazaire, Harry is constantly haunted with the harrowing reminder that so many of his friends and fellow heroes have died, but he remains strong and lives to fight another day.

But war waits for no man to recover…

He is a major in command of a band of loyal and brave men, so he must be responsible, calm and collected.

But how easy is that at the age of just twenty two?

Harry and his men are first sent on the seemingly impossible top secret mission of capturing the German Admiral in Algiers, then to undertake a raid on a radar station and to destroy a railway line.

Mustafa is merely a guide dreaming of becoming a Commando. But can he be trusted by Harry?

And can his and Harry’s terrible secret be kept… or will they have to face the looming consequences of their action, which was all for the good of the mission.

With love triangles and confused emotions, Harry is fighting an inner battle between his lust for women, different women, and attempting to be faithful to just one.

But of course the war against The Nazis is his number one focus.

The Cause is the thrilling second book in Christopher Nicole’s Commando Series .
