The book is still in print, being reissued in New York by Berkley Books in 2000 with ISBN 0-425-17718-1. The book makes use of the false document technique, and opens with Higgins describing his discovery of the grave of thirteen German paratroopers in an English graveyard.

Admiral Wilhelm Canaris, head of the Abwehr (German military intelligence), is ordered to make a feasibility study of the seemingly impossible task of capturing Prime Minister Winston Churchill and bringing him to the Reich.
