Rivetting wartime spy story.

What a fantastic war movie this would make! A brilliant German spy has infiltrated the Army as a top officer and is determined to relay the plans for Operation Overlord,the landing of the allied forces on Normandy, to his masters in Berlin.A British Intelligence officer, Major Cuthbert Pargeter, a typical upper middle class military type, teams with his American counterpart, Colonel Linus Iremonger, a brash, outspoken former cop, to track down The Fox as they've dubbed the German spy.They follow a trail of destruction and murder to prevent The Fox from escaping to Germany with a copy of the war plans, even on to the beaches of Normandy. These events actually happened as was verified by the notes written by Colonel Iremonger in later life and was crucial to the success of D-Day.
