Where Eagles Dare by Alistair MacLean

The instructions are clear: get in, get the general, get out. A small British commando team (and one American commando) are given the difficult task of breaking into "The Castle of the Eagles." It is located in the Alps, high in the mountains. Surrounding the castle is a German recruiting barracks and town. American General Carnaby was recently captured by these Germans. It is mandatory that he is rescued because he is one of the planners of the D-Day operation. The book is packed with suspense, cliff-hangers (literally and figuratively), explosions, gun fights, and brilliant double-crossing traitors. A very good book. Recommended for high school level reading.
