Tom Trumble in conversation

  • Avalon Community Library 59A Old Barrenjoey Road Avalon Beach, NSW, 2107 Australia (map)

You are invited to come to the Avalon Library to hear Tom Trumble in conversation with Sandie Docker about his book, Survival in Singapore.

On a pitch-black night in September 1943, a daring Australian commando unit launches a covert raid on Singapore Harbour, sinking and damaging numerous Japanese ships. Operation Jaywick – an epic mission that passed into Australia’s national legend – sets in motion a brutal crackdown by Japan’s dreaded military police, the Kempei Tai.
