Seven missing planes and a compromised air-route Sounds like a job for Biggles!

Mid-way through the Second World War, there has been suspicious activity along a vital British air corridor between the West coast of Africa and the Middle East. Aircraft have been disappearing with no explanation; urgent stores, dispatches and important officials have failed to arrive at their destinations.

Something must be interfering with this vital route, and the British Government knows just who to send to investigate the mystery: Biggles and his squadron set out for the desert.

However, they soon discover that this is no quick fix. A German squadron located in the desert presents an unexpected threat, and Biggles finds himself in peril once again

Join Captain James Bigglesworth to solve a wartime mystery

William Earl Johns was an English adventure writer, best known as the creator of the beloved Biggles stories, which drew on his experience as a pilot in the First World War. After his flying career with the RAF, Johns became a newspaper air correspondent, an occupation he combined with editing and illustrating books about flying. He wrote over 160 books, including nearly 100 Biggles titles.
