In 1945, a ruthless female assassin attempts to take down the ultimate target: Franklin Delano Roosevelt. And an unlikely hero, Professor Mikhal Lammeck, may be the only one who can stop her.

David L. Robbins is a New York Times best-selling author and a writer widely acknowledged for his ability to pen startlingly accurate alternate-history fiction. By positing the assassination of a U.S. president, this may be the acclaimed author's most ambitious novel yet.

Historical events are just the tip of the iceberg; this well-written and excellently delivered story show us what may exist beneath those events. Expertly paced, and thoughtfully voiced, this one is hard to put aside.

This is my fifth “read” over the years. The story is so vast - that each time there is a portion forgotten. It’s new again in so many ways. History fans will be absorbed.

Astounding

I read this book many years ago. It was just as entertertaining the second time around. Highly recommend for fans of WW2 and thriller genres.

Great writing, Really interesting story.

Any additional comments?

Very Good read!!!

This is an under-rated book caused by the first reviewer who went to the extreme and gave it a one star instead of at worst a three star... The rating unjustly skewed the books ranking downward.

This story is very entertaining read! As always reader "George Guidall" is superb.

Thoroughly engaging. I listen while I drive and on several occasions, drove out of my way and below the speed limit, even waiting in parking lots to finish chapters. I thought the story was well written and historically interesting.

This is THE book that got me reading.

I wasn’t much of a reader when I was younger, but after reading this book on a long flight in my early twenties… I was hooked! The perfect blend of history and fiction.

Fantastic read

Well paced story set during WWII. I was a little put off by the modern slang and idioms set during this time. I don't think people then talked about the "spin cycle." The two main characters were well drawn. The story line was interesting and the final chapter worth the read.

new end to an old story
