Issue Description
Mosquito pilot Bob Ross had been sent to kill a Nazi general. Already the mission had been cursed with bad luck and, of the three planes that had started out, only his Mossie was left. So it was all up to Bob and his French navigator, Paul Mallon.

Introduction
With echoes of the Amiens Jail raid, this book seems tailor-made for an air story with plenty of aerial action filling its pages. To a certain extent, that's true, but artist Collado is called on to illustrate an attempted murder mystery as well. Actually make that a potential attempted murder as Monty has managed to introduce a certain amount of doubt about that.
If Ian Kennedy's bold orange-skied cover points directly to an air story and the plot to something else, you could be forgiven for thinking the tale might be confused. But there is no split personality here, the whole flows together and pulls you along like a Merlin engine.
Well chosen, Sam Leigh.
