"Eye of the Needle" takes place during World War II. While a fictional story, it seems real as you read and get involved in the story. This book is very compelling, and hard to put down.
A German spy, Henry Faber, discovers the plans for D-Day, and has to get them back to Germany at any cost. The British government is trying to stop him, and the suspense builds as they race to discover who he is, and try to intercept him before he can get the information to the German High Command. Faber ends up on an isolated island, with only four other people. One of them discovers his secret, and tries to stop him.
Great story, I would recommend this to anyone who likes espionage stories with a lot of suspense and a little romance.
