Monty Hall’s : Churchill’s Killing House

Join local author Monty Halls as he tells one of the great un-known tales of WW2. In a remote house in Scotland, during Britain’s darkest hour, an extraordinary group of renegades, outliers, eccentrics, and visionaries gathered to create a new type of fighter. The story of the force they created, and the great raids they undertook (some of which were launched from Dartmouth), is told in his new book “Churchill’s Killing House”.
Signed copies will be available on the night.
Monty is a former Royal Marines officer, best known for his three hugely popular BBC series ‘Great Escapes’, where he lived on the west coasts of Scotland and Ireland with his dog Reuben. Monty went on to present the multi-award-winning BBC series ‘Great Barrier Reef, the Fisherman’s Apprentice’, again for the BBC, as well as series for Discovery and Channel 5.
