One of Henderson’s Boys has been taken prisoner! The fifth adventure in the Henderson’s Boys series: find out how CHERUB began!

June 1943
: Marc Kilgour, one of Henderson’s best agents, is imprisoned in a brutal German labour camp in Frankfurt.

Living on starvation rations, he fears that he’ll be unable to survive the coming winter. A set of forged record cards could be his ticket to freedom, and with them and his three bunkmates, he plots a daring escape. But the plan goes horribly wrong, and the record cards that could be his ticket to freedom might just as easily become his death warrant.

But if he can just find a way to escape, a vital mission awaits him in France…
