Brief Description: It is 1944. The world awaits the Allied invasion of Europe. Churchill has learned that Nazi scientists have developed Sarin--a new weapon that could turn the tide for Hitler. Two men--a pacifist American doctor and a fanatical Jewish assassin--must embark on a murderous mission into Germany. Their target-- a human hell where Jews fuel Hitler's last hope.

Why I recommend it: This book held my attention like no other book ever has! To begin, this book is about WWII and Nazi Germany, which i know nothing about. Since reading this book, I have a better understanding of the atrocities that occurred during that time. The author creates a fascinating, multi-layered plot involving a Nazi plan to develop Sarin gas, which may effect the the outcome of the war. In addition, the character development and storyline are extremely detailed and realistic. This is a hugely enjoyable novel full of adventures, which should definitely be made into a movie!

Do I have a copy others can borrow: Try the library.
