Synopsis

Harry Rawlins yearns for excitement before the war ends so volunteers to leave his relatively safe position, intercepting enemy signals, to join the Nottingham Sherwood Rangers. He tragically loses his friends and crewmates in a training accident just three weeks before D-Day.

A veteran tank crew, mysteriously transferred into his unit, is a man down and Harry is the body to fill that slot. Finding himself thrown into the vanguard of the assault on the beaches, can Harry survive long enough to prove himself and gain the acceptance of his new crew?

Further along the coast a traitor, codenamed Kobold, is doing his upmost to derail the allied plans. Destiny has decreed that as they battle inland their paths will become inextricably entwined. With little enthusiasm from superiors they find themselves alone in his pursuit. The chase is on.

What will get Harry first? Bad luck, the enemy or Kobold … and just what is the connection between Kobold and his new tank commander …

Here's what readers have to say about this book....

Tim Durham

Kobold is a fast-paced novel, which feels like 'Where Eagles Dare' rolled into 'Band of Brothers'. As Stacy takes you into the action of the Normandy landings, to battling Wittman's indestructible Tiger I in Villers-Bocage, to the race to Arnhem bridge, he balances each scenario with careful detail and high-octane drama. All the time, German spies work in the background attempting to undermine the Allied advance, all while wearing British uniforms. With funny, endearing characters, heartache and explosive action, Kobold is a thoroughly rewarding read.
