Inhoudsopgave:
As D-Day approaches, an American spy is unmasked by Himmlerâs Gestapo and must flee the Nazis, in this novel in the Pulitzer Prizeâwinning historical saga. In 1943, the once-unstoppable Nazi war machine is starting to falter. For a decade and a half, Lanny Buddâs cover as a fine-art dealer and Fascist sympathizer has held firm, earning him the confidence of Hermann Göring and other top officials, including Adolf Hitler himself. With the Allies preparing to retake Europe, Lanny must make certain that the location of the invasion remains hidden from the Nazi high command. But his mission is compromised and his life endangered when Heinrich Himmler, Hitlerâs feared Gestapo chief, uncovers Lannyâs true loyalties.  Now FDRâs most trusted spy must run for his life, escaping into the European countryside with Hitlerâs executioners on his trail. His survival will require great courage, endurance, and ingenuity, but Lanny Budd is determined to live long enough to witness what he has waited so many years to see: the final collapse of the Third Reich.  One Clear Call is the thrilling ninth installment of Upton Sinclairâs Pulitzer Prizeâwinning dramatization of twentieth-century world history. An astonishing mix of adventure, romance, and political intrigue, the Lanny Budd Novels are a testament to the breathtaking scope of the authorâs vision and his singular talents as a storyteller. |
