~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ An action packed second world war espionage adventure featuring new hero, Dragan Kelly. If you're a fan of Robert Harris, Ken Follett and Clive Cussler, you won't be able to put down this compulsive historical thriller down.
Intense and edge of your seat thriller. You are hooked from the very first page until the end. Complex and entertaining characters to follow along on this complicated and intense journey through the war. Good read.
I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
Sharp does a masterfully creative, convincing job of taking readers through a high octane thrill ride fishing double agents, former KGB agents and other extreme characters. A great page-turner!
I stopped reading almost half way through. Started out really good and interesting. Then got bogged down in details and assignments. The timeline from opening sequence tragedy to elite special forces seems unrealistic.
This book is for those who love reading about world war 2 adventures before the invasion and who further enjoys reading about battle action. Add songs spy stuff and you have a great read.
