Again found that this book wasn't my cup of tea. Donated it to the library. ( )Ressenya escrita per a Crítics Matiners de LibraryThing . I tried to read this book through to the end, I really did. But, after three attempts of not really getting into it, I just finally gave up. Ressenya escrita per a Crítics Matiners de LibraryThing . It took me a little while to get into this book. Partly personal because I hate coming in to a series without having read the prior books & partly because it seemed to skip around a lot. Once it got going though it was good. I thoroughly enjoyed the characters, I found the bits of it a bit slow going but I'm not really a spy novel person. I handed it over to my husband, who is and while he also found it a hard start he enjoyed it enough to go find the first book. Overall it was a good read Ressenya escrita per a Crítics Matiners de LibraryThing . I just could not get in to this book and trust me I tried. The time period (Berlin, 1946, WWII over and Europe trying to recover) is a fantastic spring board for writing a great and compelling story. This book's beginning was disjointed (as others have pointed out) and the story line seemed too "cutesy" for me. I could not connect with the book's protagonist and maybe reading the first volume would have helped there. Ressenya escrita per a Crítics Matiners de LibraryThing . This book started out disjointed; and I assume it's because I didn't read 'Book 1' of the series, but it cleans up nicely, and ends up being an enjoyable read.

May, 1946. America is basking in hard-won peace and prosperity. The OSS has been disbanded and CIA does not yet exist. Rumors swirl about the Red Army massing tanks along the Elbe in East Germany. Former OSS agent Hal Schroeder gets an offer from Global Commerce LTD to be a trade rep in Berlin. He flies to New York to meet his new boss. Hal's jaw drops when former OSS chief Wild Bill Donovan strides in. Schroeder, who survived perilous duty behind German lines, says he is no longer interested in being a spy. General Donovan assures him that's not part of his job description. Hal comes to doubt that when he meets his immediate superior in Berlin. It's Victor Jacobson, the case officer who sent him on repeated suicide missions in World War II. No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |
