The Destroyers, an elite British naval commando squad, are ordered on a deadly operation to Italy.

Their mission: to convince the Germans that Admiral Canaris, their top intelligence man, is a traitor.

To do this Lieutenant Crooke, VC and his men must penetrate a mountain fortress and plant a number of papers that will incriminate Admiral Canaris in the baggage of Il Duce, Benito Mussolini.

However, Mussolini has been overthrown by his own people and the Germans have ordered a rescue mission led by the scarred commando Captain Skorzeny.

To reach Il Duce the Destroyers must carve a bloody path through Skorzeny's ruthless SS commandos...

But have they met their match this time?
