that she's got a mountain of her own
to climb...

moustache. What do German Generals
get up to behind closed doors? Will
Tommy find romance with French beauty
Sophie Ce Soir? How will our heroes
disguise themselves? And how important
is the Enigma Machine code book to
the outcome of the world's most talked
