About this listen
A man is found dead in an escape tunnel in an Italian prisoner of war camp. Did he die in an accidental collapse - or was this murder? Captain Henry 'Cuckoo' Goyles, master tunneller and amateur detective, takes up the case. This classic locked room mystery with a closed circle of suspects is woven together with a thrilling story of escape from the camp, as the Second World War nears its endgame and the British prisoners prepare to flee into the Italian countryside.

Excellent story, well performed
This ended up being a very unexpected book, it was a fascinating look into the prison life, actions in
Italy nearing the Armistice there, and the interactions of the various parties. Although I figured out what
was going on around 2/3 of the way through the book, it was so beautifully written and the characters and
events so engaging, I could barely stop listening to it.
I certainly didn't expect a story of this quality and genuine depth given the description that was provided.
