Basic training in the Foreign Legion is brutally tough. Its aim is to forge bonds of loyalty that stand the test of modern combat and last a lifetime. Fifteen years after he took off his white kepi for the last time, Peter Bergman is a No Release prisoner in a Gulag camp that officially no longer exists. The man he blames for putting him there is his old Legion comrade, Jack Roscoe. They were best friends, until Bergman slept with Vanessa, igniting Roscoe's jealously to the point that he deliberately refuses to deliver a message to the hotel, knowing they are there together. It was a fatal mistake. For such treachery, Bergman swears bloody revenge, if he ever gets free. But the real culprit is Anastas Lirian, their case-officer who was behind the double-cross... Roscoe has been plagued by guilt for years, calling out Bergman's name in his sleep. In St Petersburg during the autumn of 1992, Roscoe learns that Bergman is still alive and decides to rescue him. The plan is brilliant but the chance of success is small. Roscoe's only ally is the beautiful woman over whom he and Bergman fell out. She warns that the price of failure is death... That doesn't stop Jack Roscoe. To him, something fa more important is at stake: a man's honour - without which life is not worth living. Will he be able to find Bergman and save him? And will Bergman want to be saved? 'The Honour and the Glory' is a fast-paced adventure from Douglas Boyd. Praise for the author: 'Well-crafted, convincing and intriguing' - Tony Geraghty, author of MARCH OR DIE Boyd is also the author of a non-fiction history of the Legion, which was so appreciated by English-speaking legionnaires that they elected him an honorary member of the Association des Anciens de le Legion Etrangere de Bordeaux - making him an honorary ex-legionnaire! His best-selling books include 'The Eagle and the Snake' and 'The Truth and the Lies'. Endeavour Press is the UK's leading independent publisher of digital books.
