The all new, must-read memoir by legendary Kinks guitarist Dave Davies 'BOOK OF THE DAY' - Guardian 'This powerful tell-all from the Kinks guitarist puts the spotlight on his own bad behaviour, dalliances with the occult and his recovery from a stroke.' - Observer 'Heartfelt, hilarious, revealing, insightful and astonishingly candid. Boy, you really got me Dave. I can't wait to read it again.' - Mark Hamill Dave Davies is the co-founder and lead guitarist of epoch-defining band the Kinks, a group with fifty million record sales to their name. In his autobiography, Davies revisits the glory days of the band that spawned so much extraordinary music, and which had such a profound influence on bands from The Clash and Van Halen to Oasis and Blur.

It is early September 1944 and in the West the Allied armies are advancing inexorably towards the borders of the Reich. It seems like the War could be over by Christmas. But then, a 16 year old boy on the coast of Nazi occupied Holland witnesses the launch of Hitler's ultimate secret terror weapon, the V2 rocket. Across the North Sea, the great city of London and its 8 million inhabitants lie prostrate at the mercy of the rocket bombs. Churchill is adamant: they must be destroyed. Radio signals are received from a "sleeper" agent in enemy territory, and RAF photo reconnaisance locates the launch site. An elite commando team parachutes in to link up with the Dutch Resistance and sabotage the weapons. But sadistic SS Sturmbannfuhrer Aldorf and his murderous sidekick Zharko have other ideas, and a deadly game of ‘cat and mouse’ develops. The tension builds inexorably with every twist and turn, as it hurtles towards an adrenaline pumping and explosive climax..........
