What really happened to the billions of dollars worth of gold seized by Nazi Germany? What role did the Swiss government play and what are the implications of neutrality during wartime? The author addresses these questions, presents the case for and against Switzerland, and applies the lessons learned from World War II to the broader issue of companies - and countries - profiting during wartime.

Between the Alps and a Hard Place is both thrilling World War II history and an exposé of the shameful selling of historical truth and American foreign policy for political gain.

Amazing book but the reader often repeats sections she has just read over and over again. The audio quality for one of the chapters isn’t great either. However, I really enjoyed the content of the book.

Great Book but not so great recording

Very interesting content, but the narrator ruined the listening experience. The absence of paused made it nearly impossible to distinguish between headings and the body of the paragraph. The monotone covered the significance of certain passages and poor pronunciation made it difficult to pick up key words.
Oh well.

If you enjoy poorly edited and overwrought political screeds about modern politics, this book is probably for you. But if you're interested in finding out more about the history of Switzerland during World War II, keep looking.

This is not a review of the book, as I was unable to get far into the book.

The narration is absolutely awful. It was done by a real woman, but has the sound and flow of a robotic synthesized voice.

I have listened to hundreds of audiobooks and this bar far is the worst narrated one of them all.

It was like someone just took the text and put it through one of those voice-synthesizer programs.

Unbearable Narration
