‘The master storyteller’ – The Times

‘This fresh concept is carried off with effortless skill’ – Barry Forshaw

Jackdaws by Ken Follett is an irresistible novel about the French Resistance – a story of love, courage and revenge in the Second World War.


A Failed Mission
Two weeks before D-Day, the French Resistance try to destroy a telephone exchange vital to Nazi communications. Heavily defended, the mission fails disastrously.

A Daring Plan
With invasion looming, Flick Clairet, a British secret agent, proposes a daring but perilous new plan. She, along with an all-female team – the Jackdaws – will infiltrate and neutralize the exchange before Allied forces land in France.

A Race Against Time
However, unbeknownst to Flick, a German army officer has assigned a brilliant spy-catcher – Dieter Franck – to crush the French Resistance. And now Franck is closing in . . .
