Dark Side of the Street by Jack Higgins
A British agent goes behind bars to trap an elusive enemy in this thriller from the New York Times-bestselling author of The Eagle Has Landed.
As an experienced operative of the British Intelligence organization known as "The Bureau," Paul Chavasse is used to working behind enemy lines. So when he's approached with a mission that will land him in prison, he's certain it will be an easy stretch.
He's wrong.
For some time, a clandestine organization headed by an enigmatic leader called the Baron has been breaking prisoners out of confinement with military precision, only to disappear into the darkness once again. The next convict to be freed is most likely Harry Youngblood, a disgruntled associate of the Baron's who could be the key to the case.
All Chavasse has to do is get in good with Youngblood, tag along when his boss busts him out, and unmask the Baron. Then all he has to do is stay alive . . .
With millions of fans and dozens of bestsellers including the series featuring Liam Devlin and Sean Dillon, Jack Higgins is truly one of the original masters of the international thriller.

Higgins, Jack: - Since The Eagle Has Landed -- one of the biggest-selling thrillers of all time -- every novel Jack Higgins has written, including his most recent works, The Judas Gate and A Devil Is Waiting, has become an international bestseller. He has had simultaneous number-one bestsellers in hardcover and paperback, and many of his books have been made into successful movies, including The Eagle Has Landed, To Catch a King, On Dangerous Ground, Eye of the Storm, and Thunder Point. Higgins, who lived in Belfast until he was twelve, had several close calls with bombs and gunfire at an early age. After leaving school at fifteen, he served three years with the Royal Horse Guards in Eastern Europe during the cold war. Subsequently, he was a circus roustabout, a factory worker, a truck driver, and a laborer, before entering college at age twenty-seven. He has degrees in sociology, social psychology, and economics from the University of London, and a doctorate in media from Leeds Metropolitan University. A fellow of the Royal Society of Arts, and an expert scuba diver and marksman, Higgins lives on Jersey in the Channel Islands.
