The Neptune Landing (Tinfish Run Book 3)

The Neptune Landing (Tinfish Run Book 3)

â€˜Tomorrow, Force J will rendezvous with other invasion components in mid-channel and proceed to the French coast. You all know what that means â€¦â€™

Hell bent for the Normandy beaches a massive flotilla of naval vessels are involved in one of the most harrowing and dramatic episodes of World War II â€” Operation Neptune, code name for â€˜Dâ€™ Day.

The vital contribution by landing craft to the success of the operation is enormous â€” LCF49 is just one of these, a small vessel whose crew know only too well that death could be just round the corner â€¦

Thereâ€™s SBA Peach, whose reaction to the demon drink has something to be desired â€” Lt. Turk, down-to-earth C.O. â€” Perkins and Walters, two hard-boiled sailors with a cynical eye â€” and Signalman â€˜Lobbyâ€™ Ludd, whose main problem is his stormy relationship with a certain Freda Harris from Walham Green â€¦

Will they be able survive one of the most ambitious naval landings ever?

Or will Operation Neptune be their last mission?

The Neptune Landing detailing the tragedies and triumphs of â€˜Dâ€™ Day is the dramatic sequel to The Tinfish Run and The Pierhead Jump.
