Col. John Randal and Lady Jane arrive in London just before Christmas 1943. They find themselves caught up in the murky world of Military Deception. MI-5 had captured every German spy in England and given them the choice of a firing squad or becoming a double agent working for the Double Cross Committee XX. Raiding Forces has been tapped to carry out the boots on the ground part of Operation Fortitude South—designed to convince Hitler of what he already believed—that the D-Day landing will take place at the narrowest part of the English Channel—in Calais. The invasion, when it goes in, will actually land in Normandy. The idea is to tie down the German 15th Army in Calais to give the Allies a chance to get ashore and set up a beachhead strong enough to fight off German counterattacks. Raiding Forces is tasked with conducting a series of raids in Calais to simulate strategic forward reconnaissance/prepare the battlefield.
