Nazi forces dominate Europe, and the Allies in England are using an elaborate subterfuge to convince Germany of a massive invasion, purposely creating confusion as to its location, a German operative, calculating and ruthless, is entrusted by Hitler himself to find out the truth

His code name was “The Needle.” He was a German aristocrat of extraordinary intelligence—a master spy with a legacy of violence in his blood, and the object of the most desperate manhunt in history. . . . But his fate lay in the hands of a young and vulnerable English woman, whose loyalty, if swayed, would assure his freedom—and win the war for the Nazis. . . .

All will come to a terrifying conclusion in Ken Follett’s unsurpassed and unforgettable masterwork of suspense, intrigue, and the dangerous machinations of the human heart.

“Follett is a master storyteller. In Eye of the Needle, he is especially good at placing his fictional character into a fascinating, true-life context (especially one that might not be known to casual fans of history). It is a testament to Follett’s plotting that, despite knowing the overall outcome of the novel (the Allies successfully invaded Normandy and won World War II), you will tear through the book to see how it ends.

Of course, when it does end, you will probably feel vaguely unsatisfied, and maybe a little dirty, but that’s to be expected. You don’t read a Follett thriller to be intellectually nourished. You read a Follett thriller for the twists and turns, the outbursts of violence, and the it-leaves-nothing-to-the-imagination sexual encounters.” - Goodreads
