Absolutely thrilling, based on a true story. Believable characters, war-time challenges in harsh conditions with dire consequences for failure. Very well told!
Based on the stirring true story, The Saboteur is Andrew Gross's follow-up to the riveting historical thriller, The One Man. A richly-woven story probing the limits of heroism, sacrifice and determination, The Saboteur portrays a hero who must weigh duty against his heart in order to single-handedly end the one threat that could alter the course of World War II. Kurt Nordstrom escapes to England to transmit secret evidence of the Nazis's progress towards an atomic bomb at an isolated factory in Norway. There, he joins a team of dedicated Norwegians in training in the Scottish Highlands for a mission to disrupt the Nazis' plans before they advance any further.
This book is a must read. The characters are very well-drawn and interesting. The plot pace is non-stop and makes it hard to put down this book. It is historically accurate and a quick and easy read. I also learned a lot about Norway and some of the winter conditions in the rugged mountainous terrain and the beauty of the country. I look forward to reading another one of Andrew Gross' books and I would highly recommend this book to those who like to read books about WWII.
