A tense, marvellously detailed suspense thriller based on a solid foundation of fact, Sunday Times

An absolutely terrific thriller, so pulse-pounding, so ingenious in its plotting and so frighteningly realistic that you simply cannot stop reading, Publishers Weekly

Eye of the Needle, Ken Follett's breakthrough international bestseller, is a heart-racingly exciting tale about the fate of the war resting in the hands of a master spy, his opponent and a brave woman.

Victory Hangs in the Balance

1944. In the weeks leading up to D-Day the Allies are disguising their invasion plans with elaborate decoys of ships and planes. If they can land a force on mainland Europe they will gain the upper hand in a war that has ravaged the world for years, and take the fight to the Nazi menace.

A Cold-blooded Killer

His weapon is the stiletto, his codename: The Needle. He is Hitler’s prize undercover agent–a ruthless and professional murderer. In England he uncovers the Allies’D-Day plans but his cover is blown in the process.

A Deadly Chase

Leaving a trail of bodies in his wake, The Needle ruthlessly races to a U-boat waiting to convey him and his critical message to Germany, with MI5 on his tail. But he hasn’t planned for a storm-battered island and the remarkable young woman who lives there . . .

肯·福莱特（Ken Follett，1949— ），当代大师级惊悚小说作家。1949年6月5日生于英国威尔士，在伦敦念完大学后曾任新闻记者，后专职写作。1978年以《针眼》一书荣获埃德加·爱伦·坡佳小说奖，蜚声国际，年仅27岁。之后又有《圣彼得堡来客》《与狮同眠》等多部小说畅销全世界，奠定了不可动摇的大师地位。

福莱特的作品一大特色是内容都有史实根据。历史上的真实人物与小说中的虚构角色，天衣无缝地融合在一起。其栩栩如生的人物刻画、高潮迭起的情节铺陈，精致准确的细节描绘，让读者在亦真亦幻之中，与历史时代共浮沉，和历史人物同悲喜，得到无比的乐趣。

福莱特还擅长描写爱情，用纤细动人的笔触，捕捉男女间微妙的感情变化，使他的惊悚小说同时也是一流的爱情小说。
