With commando like precision, someone was breaking Britian's most notorious prisoners out of jail and delivering convicted spies back to the Communists. His code name was The Baron - a ruthless mastermind so mysterious there was just one way to trace him: put in a secret operative inside the walls and let The Baron get him out.

To do it the Special Branch needed an agent with the cunning mind of a criminal and the cold heart of a killer. That agent wa Paul Chavasse - tough enough to withstand the raw violence of prison life, smart enough to survive a heart stopping escape to the unknown, ingenious enough to pull off a chilling doublecross and an explosive, death defying plan to capture The Baron.
