Description
As the tide of war turns against the Germans, they have one devastating card left to play... Summer 1944. The Germans are hard-pressed on all fronts; there is no way they can win the war unless they can find a weapon strong enough to claim victory. Major Paul Hausser of the Fallschirmjaeger - the German paratrooper wing - has an audacious plan. With a handful of his men, and a mixture of assorted traitors, crooks and desperadoes, his mission is to kidnap Robert Oppenheimer, the head of the US Atomic bomb project. Can they seize the secret of the bomb and with it change the course of history? The Armageddon Pact is a fast-paced WW2 thriller, set throughout occupied Europe and America. Taking historical facts, but giving them a fictional twist, Bobby Smith writes with authority about the moral complexities of being a soldier in a vicious war. All men have a breaking point; when or where are the only matters to be decided...
