Von Stalhein is spotted in Britain trying to entice guardsmen to desert and join an "international brigade". But where are these people going and what are they meant to do? Biggles suspects there is a bigger plot behind this. He has Guardsman Ross go undercover into Von Stalhein's scheme, promising to stay close behind. The trail is not easy and takes Biggles halfway around the world, through Prague and Berlin then into the remote northeast of China near the North Korean border. To get Guardsman Ross out will be a complex operation involving all the air police and Biggles' old friend, "Gimlet" King and his band of trusty commandoes.Cover art trivia: This cover of this 1972 Armada edition shows a Corsair, which never appears in the story. Biggles flying a Corsair after World War 2? What is going on? Precisely. It was just intriguing enough to entice readers to buy the book to find out what did go on inside. Of course the Corsair never showed up. Credit: https://biggles.fandom.com/wiki/Biggles_Follows_On
