Publisher Description
October 1945. The war is over. The OSS has been disbanded. But for Cletus Frade and his colleagues in the OSS, the fight goes on…
In the closing months of the war, the United States made a secret deal with Reinhard Gehlen, head of German intelligence’s Soviet section. In exchange for a treasure trove of intelligence on the Soviets and their spies within the U.S. atomic bomb program, Gehlen’s people would be spirited to safety in Argentina.
Only a handful of people know about the deal. If word got out, all hell would break loose—and the U.S. would lose some of the most valuable intelligence sources they possess. It is up to Frade and company to keep them safe.
But some people have other ideas...

Review
I am a retired businessman, and was, what now seems a lifetime ago, an officer cadet in the Royal Canadian Navy. I am a huge fan of W.E.B. Griffin, and suspect that I have read every one of his books. This latest is, in my not so humble opinion, among the best. Until starting this "Honour" (sorry, but that is the proper spelling) series, I had thought the "Brotherhood of Arms", was Griffin's best. I now have come to believe that the continuing saga of Cletus Frade and company is truly the best of a very good collection of military fiction that I have ever had the enjoyment of reading. I recommend this book, and the series in which it is but the latest chapter, as a most enjoyable read. My very great thanks to the author(s) for many hours of enjoyment.
