Description: World War Two. North Africa.
When Lieutenant Donald Cameron joined the corvette Oleander at Freetown he imagined they would be doing routine convoy duty.
But Oleander’s task is to take part in the seaborne invasion of North Africa, supporting Montgomery in his pursuit of the African Korps, and to join the immensely complicated maneuvers of Operation Torch.
Small and outdated, Oleander nonetheless has a vital part to play in the Torch strategy, involving a huge number of Allied warships spread throughout the Mediterranean.
Having narrowly escaped the heavy screen of German U-boats off the coast of Gibraltar, the Oleander receives new instructions to contact a Free French admiral who has information that could jeopardize the success of both the land and sea forces in Operation Torch.
A secret dump, thought to be a germ warfare depot, has been discovered in a small fishing village with canisters of anthrax ready for deployment in case of German retreat.
Cameron is one of the volunteers sent ashore near Mers-el-Kabir to capture the dump, but his party is totally unprepared for the dangers that they face.
Landmines, machine-gun fire and the German army’s determination to release the anthrax ensure that Cameron and his team face a near-impossible mission.
The pressure is on Cameron: success or failure depends on his courage and cunning alone.
Additional info: First published in as Orders for Cameron by Arthur Baker Limited in 1983.
