Like a scene from Where Eagles Dare, a small team of American spies parachutes into Italy behind enemy lines. Their orders: link up with local partisans and sabotage the well-guarded Brenner Pass - the Nazis' crucial supply route through the Alps - thereby bringing the German war effort in Italy to a grinding halt.

Four days before Christmas in 1943, a badly damaged American bomber struggled to fly over wartime Germany. At its controls was a 21-year-old pilot. Half his crew lay wounded or dead. It was their first mission. Suddenly a sleek, dark shape pulled up on the bomber’s tail - a German Messerschmitt fighter. Worse, the German pilot was an ace, a man able to destroy the American bomber with the squeeze of a trigger.

As Nazi Germany launched its campaign of racial terror and pushed the world toward war, three misfits banded together to challenge Hitler’s dominance at the apex of motorsport: the Grand Prix. Their quest for redemption culminated in a remarkable race that is still talked about in racing circles to this day - but which, soon after it ended, Hitler attempted to completely erase from history.

Fabulous story about the wild early days of car racing. Interesting to hear about Germany pre war including the 1936 Olympics. Author makes learning history fun!

In the summer of 1933, a man named Adolf Hitler is the new and powerful anti-Semitic chancellor of Germany. But in Los Angeles, no-nonsense secretary Liesl Weiss has concerns much closer to home. The Great Depression is tightening its grip, and Liesl is the sole supporter of two children, an opinionated mother, and a troubled brother.

Fantastic WW2 Story
Revisado: 03-14-23
This book has it all: Hollywood, spies, and Nazis and loads of danger. Best of all, it is based on true events in the 1930s when Adolf Hitler plotted to seize control of Hollywood and a ragtag team of spies worked to stop him. The author is masterful in weaving a story with well-developed characters and a dramatic plot. There are plenty of secrets, foiled plans, narrow escapes, all tied together. The author captures Hollywood a the time perfectly! A “must read” for anyone who likes historical fiction. You will not be disappointed!!! Narrators were superb at adding to the story.

Susan Tate Ankeny was sorting through the belongings of her late father - a World War II bombardier who had bailed from a burning B-17 over Nazi-occupied France in 1944 - when she found two boxes. One contained her dad's Air Force uniform, and the other an unfinished memoir, stacks of envelopes, black-and-white photographs, mission reports, dog tags, and the fake identity cards he used in his escape. Ankeny spent more than a decade from that moment tracking down letter writers, their loved ones, and anyone who had played a role in her father's story.

Fabulous story
Revisado: 03-17-22
Great to hear exactly what a downed bombardier faced in ww2. Particularly interesting to hear it was all true. Loved hearing what those that helped the Americans were thinking and why they did it. Very suspenseful and read like a thriller novel. So glad this author brought this story forward as so many stories will not get told. We owe so much to those men in the airplanes who did so much during such dangerous missions.
