In mid-1944 a top secret mission was being planned - an attack on 60 unsuspecting Japanese ships in Singapore Harbour. The attack would be undertaken by 23 British and Australian commandos in top secret one-man submarines called 'Sleeping Beauties' just developed in Britain. Named Operation Rimau (Malay for 'Tiger'), the mission was inspired by the success of an earlier operation by many of the same team recruited for Rimau. In that mission-Operation Jaywick-seven Japanese ships were sunk at harbour when the commandos, led by Lt. Col. Ivan Lyon, slipped into the area on a converted Japanese fishing vessel, the Krait, and escaped without casualty. KILL THE TIGER tells the story of the Rimau operation from its early beginnings to its tragic conclusion. The authors have uncovered new evidence that uncovers the fate of the Rimau men and reveals the names of those who betrayed them. It is a story of men of great courage and bravery, betrayed by men on their own side.
