Overview

Mason Collins investigates a dangerous web of co-conspirators in a case that will take him from a Hollywood-style nightclub and a speeding train, to the icy slopes of the Bavarian Alps. When the Third Reich collapsed, the small town of Garmisch-Partenkirchen became the home of fleeing war criminals, making it the final depository for the Nazis' stolen riches. There are fortunes to be made on the black market. Murder, extortion, and corruption have become the norm. It's a perfect storm for a criminal investigator like Mason Collins, who must investigate a shadowy labyrinth of co-conspirators including former SS and Gestapo officers, U.S. Army OSS officers, and liberated Polish POWs.

Reviews

A second installment just as terrific as the first - this is going to be a must-read series for me. --Lee Child, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Jack Reacher thrillers Excitement melds with adventure as the tangled threads gradually unwind, revealing treachery coming from all directions. The whole thing is reminiscent of early-Robert Ludlum, and makes you clamor for more. --Steve Berry, author of The Templar Legacy and The Bishop's Pawn Connell's intense sequel...keeps readers guessing to the end as to just who's trustworthy and who might be part of the shadowy syndicate. --Publishers Weekly ... the second novel in John Connell's Mason Collins detective... is even better than the first....Connell has an impressive ability to detail the chaos of occupied Germany in the late 1940s and this novel establishes Mason Collins as a character who should be able to support a long series. --Military.com ... the second Mason Collins thriller is an absolute barn burner the likes of which we haven't seen since Ludlum or Clancy's first. Yeah. He's that good. --Mysterious Book Report
