Intelligence agent Einar Munk races against time after discovering a Nazi conspiracy involving the poison gas-filled V-3 rocket that may be destined to destroy the Allied powers that defeated them forty years earlier
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
The specter of Armageddon looms in Melchior's eighth novel (Order of Battle, Eva). Its agent is the V-3, a poisonous exsiccating gas developed by Hitler to succeed the V-1 and V-2 rockets. In the present, aging but still fanatic Nazis plan to unleash the gas and kill millions. Army intelligence reactivates chemist Einar Munk who, as a wartime operative for the OSS, first learned of the gas's manufacture. His orders: find it and contain it. In this desperate mission, Einar is aided by his wife, Birte. Einar discovers the V-3 in a sunken U-boat, the canisters dangerously near final corrosion and each of them booby-trapped. One explosive episode follows another in this thriller, and the explosions keep the reader hopping as the enemy zeroes in. U.K. rights: Laurence Pollinger; translation rights: Dodd, Mead. November 11
