Torrance: Betrayal in Burma

By Jonathan Lunn

Save their lives, but trust no one… Torrance is back and fighting for his life.

Burma, 1942: In the face of a relentless Japanese advance, the British Army is in headlong retreat.

Given command of a squad of defaulters, Corporal Charlie Torrance is tasked with escorting a notorious political prisoner to captivity in India. But a Japanese intelligence agent has joined forces with Burmese independence fighters intent on rescuing their comrade.

And it’s starting to look as though there could be a traitor in Torrance’s squad…

As the British Empire crumbles, Torrance will be forced to question everything he’s fighting for when he makes a bloody last stand in the sultry Burmese jungle.

Inspired by actual events, Torrance: Betrayal in Burma is a blistering adventure in the best traditions of Alistair MacLean and Bernard Cornwell.

Jonathan Lunn

Born in London a very long time ago, Jonathan Lunn claims to have literary antecedents, being descended from the man who introduced Sir Arthur Conan Doyle to the Reichenbach Falls. To relax he goes for long strolls in the British countryside, an activity which over the years has resulted in him getting lost (multiple times), breaking a rib, failing to overcome his fear of heights atop dizzying precipices, fleeing herds of stampeding cattle, providing a feast for blood-sucking parasites, being shot at by hooligans with air-rifles, and finding himself trapped by rising floodwaters. He lives in Bristol where he writes full time.
