"When Eight Bells Toll was first published in 1966. It marked MacLean's return after a three year hiatus following the publication of Ice Station Zebra. It combines the genres of spy novel and detective novel, with considerable success. MacLean calls on his own Scottish background to authentically portray the rugged weather, people and terrain of western Scotland" Wikipeadia

First published in 1966, this fontana paperback edition: 1980.

This book made it all the way to Austrailia then came back again as I stupidly forgot to put the first line of the address on (thank goodness for return addresses).

I will post it again and hopefully, this time it will make it.
