One morning in autumn, 1944, the fishing boat Serenity set out to sea from Trinidad never to return.

But Serenity is not […]

You may remember a tale of two RAF men, stranded somewhat begrudgingly together, in a boat somewhere in the British Channel after Dunkirk. Well, the nightmare pair are back at it again, lumbered with top-secret intelligence jobs, flying in a stolen Jerry floatplane. Only with these two numskulls, it’s bound not to last long! […]
May 1940 is a time that has gone down in history, and there are many stories of daring escapes from Dunkirk, and bravery while fleeing from the German forces overrunning France. But this is not one of those stories, for there are none quite like this tale of two RAF men in one boat. […]
