Targets of Opportunity
(2025)(The seventh book in the Spitfire Mavericks series)
A novel by D R Bailey
Maverick Squadron returns with another wartime adventure! For fans of Derek Robinson, James Holland, Frank Barnard and Jack Higgins.
The Mavericks are fighting on two fronts…
Spring, 1943
Flight Lieutenant Angus Mackennelly and his squadron have been given a new mission. The Mavericks are to attack ‘Targets of Opportunity’ under the umbrella of Operation Wagtail.
The War Office wants to capitalise on the Germans’ defeat by the Russians at Stalingrad earlier in the year by harassing them in Northern France and the Low Countries.
Military targets are now on the table. The modus operandi will be to fly in, strafe the targets and get out all under the radar.
The first mission of Operation Wagtail goes ahead. But while the pilots are away, personal items go missing from the mess.
Angus is worried about a security breach.
Are his men under threat? Who is stealing from them?
And will the sense of mistrust interfere with the operations in the skies…?
TARGETS OF OPPORTUNITY is the seventh book in the Spitfire Mavericks Thrillers series: action-packed aviation adventures set during the second world war and featuring a team of vigilante pilots.
