Synopsis

In the darkest days of World War 2, a German U-boat officer escapes from a prisoner of war camp in northern Canada with a secret that could lead to a Nazi victory. Fearing disaster, the Canadians team a veteran Royal Canadian Mounted Police inspector with a visiting young American FBI agent to find him before he can get his information back to the Nazis. But the fugitive, Gregor Meinhoff, is smart and resourceful and the need for secrecy ties the hunters hands.A fast and tense game of move, countermove, deception and detection all across Canada ensues as the elusive German evades capture and gets ever closer to his goal. His pursuers must battle time, distance, deception, political interference, and each other to try to find and stop Meinhoff before its too late.

About this title

About the Author:

John Reisinger's first published work was an article on construction in Greenland while he was an officer in the U.S. Coast Guard. Since then he has written several books, articles, and short stories on topics ranging from Civil War blockade running to the manhunt for an escaped German POW, to the Mayans, to the biography of one of America's greatest detectives. He even found time to write a children's book. 
John writes books centered on some the weird corners of real-life, believing that truth is more incredible and interesting than any fiction. Reading his books is like stepping into another time and place.
His book Master Detective has been published in several editions, including versions in Taiwan and Mainland China. 
Like the detective in his current series, the Max Hurlock Roaring 20s Mysteries, John lives on Maryland's Eastern Shore, not far from the Chesapeake Bay. John has written and spoken on topics such as writing, crime and forensics, and the secrets behind some of the world's landmark structures. Two of his books have won gold medals from the Global eBook Awards. John has spoken to graduate school classes and civic organizations, and has appeared in a TV episode of Mysteries at the Museum.
