But Major O'Conor, ex-liaison officer with the Yugoslav Partisans, is conducting his own private war.

So it is unfortunate for him that two interpreters attached to his task force happen to be Second-Lieutenant Audley and Corporal Butler, already revealing the cunning and resourcefulness that, in earlier novels, has taken them to the very top of their field.
