Watching Fritz

I've grown tired of blood-and-guts war stories, so I've written this series to examine deeper issues. David left the battlefields in the first chapter of the first volume of this story, and to this point, he has not returned to them. He has found far more effective ways to fight the German war machine.Complete

Dieppe. Summer, 1942. Lord Louis Mountbatten, Commander of the Combined Operations Office, has his eye on Northern France and an audacious plan for an Allied raid on this quiet fishing port in Normandy. But the head of Special Operations, Charles Hambro, has his doubts. Mountbatten's plans seem politically motivated and dangerously lacking in detail. Bowing to Mountbatten's seniority - and against his better judgement - Hambro sends his best agent, Arthur Cutter, undercover to France. Smuggled into the outskirts of Dieppe, Cutter links up with a young, hostile, and female French resistance fighter, Talia Crevier. As the Allied Forces attempt to penetrate the Nazi Atlantic Wall, Cutter and Crevier must find a way to trust each other - and infiltrate the Nazi forces within the town in a desperate attempt to give the raid a fighting chance. But as circumstance and Nazi cunning encircle them, the odds of success for Mountbatten's Operation Jubilee grow smaller and smaller.... JUBILEE is a top-flight World War II thriller that pulses with energy and intrigue. Conor Bender takes us into Occupied France and delivers a page-turning story of spies, lovers, and enemies, and a high-stakes mission that could go terribly, terribly wrong. A spellbinding and deeply satisfying thriller. Michele Rubin, Cornerstones U.S.Complete
