The Fall of Singapore on 15 February 1942 is a military disaster of enduring fascination. For the 60th anniversary of the liberation of the island, Peter Thompson tells the explosive story of the Malayan campaign, the siege of Singapore, the ignominious surrender to a much smaller Japanese force, and the Japanese occupation through the eyes of those who were there - the soldiers of all nationalities and members of Singapore's beleaguered population. An enthralling and perceptive account, which never loses sight of the human cost of the tragedy - Yorkshire Evening Post. An insightful and dramatic analysis - The Good Book Guide

In the closing stages of WWII, a group of top british and Australian commandos were selected for the biggest covert operation of the Pacific War. Operation Rimau (Malay for Tiger) was an ambitious plan to penetrate Singapore Harbour in top-secret one-man submarines called Sleeping Beauties and launch an attack on 60 Japanese ships at anchor. As the commandos infiltrated japanese-occupied waters near Singapore, things went horribly wrong. Due to bureaucratic fumbling and incompetence, the submarine detailed to pick up the men did not arrive. They were all executed by the Japanese.
