Biggles smuggles a vital cargo from right under the enemy's nose!
A Chinese smuggler called Li Chi, who owes Biggles his life, has built up a secret store of rubber, a vital war material, that he would like to offer to the British war effort.
It is hidden on a remote island off Malaya, currently under Japanese control, more than a thousand miles from the nearest Allied air base. And there is no runway on the island
Not doubting Biggles' ability to do the impossible for a moment, Air Commodore Raymond orders him to smuggle the rubber to India by plane. Together with the men of 666 squadron, Biggles flies off to war once again.
A thrilling tale of smuggling and night-time commando raids in south-east Asia.
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.
