Holland and Murray continue the Oudna disaster — 2 Para abandoned behind Axis lines in Tunisia, John Frost leading a fighting withdrawal across hostile terrain. The operational detail on how a botched airborne raid turned into a survival march is excellent, and Holland's command of the North African theatre keeps the narrative grounded in the wider Torch campaign. Part 2 of 2, so start with Part 1 if you haven't.
