1958. Buck Danny continues the covert operation intended to rescue American nuclear scientists kidnapped by the USSR in 1951. Unfortunately, nothing goes as planned, and Buck and friends find themselves struggling to escape the clutches of deadly SMERSH operatives – the Red Army’s counter-intelligence arm … From Russia to Iran and Turkey, from desperate dogfights in the air to commando operations on the ground, courage and consummate skill will be the key words of this conclusion to a two-part story.
First thing: although Cinebook lists vol 9 on its site re Buck Danny Classics none of the other volumes showed up and 10 is nowhere to be found. I had to do an internet search to actually find the details... on the Cinebook site!!! No idea what is going on there but I';ve given the links to save you getting an headache.
Now, a spoiler but not a major one: in the last book Sonny was arrested for the murder of someone close to him. Away from Buck and his friends things look like they might get a little rough but one thing is certain: Sonny is toughing it out.
Meanwhile Buck and friends are knee deep in action and at one point things are looking a little bleak for them until "someone" rescues them!
Gun fights, shark attack and more than a few surprises are in store for any avid reader of this series and the rather sinister organisation that just lost its leader has a new one appointed: none other than Miss Lee -and she is one Sonny's revenge list!
