Facing daunting challenges in the form of political threats against the OSS and the early stirrings of the Cold War, Cletus Frade and his colleague conduct a secret operation to counter the growing ambitions of Joseph Stalin. - Baker & Taylor
Jumping straight from World War II to equally daunting challenges in the form of political threats against the OSS and the early stirrings of the Cold War, Cletus Frade and his colleague conduct a secret, morally ambiguous operation to counter the growing ambitions of Joseph Stalin. - Penguin Putnam
The spectacular new book in New York Times-bestselling author W.E.B. Griffin's Honor Bound saga of World War II espionage.
Wars come to an end. But then new ones begin. Just weeks after Hitler's suicide, Cletus Frade and his colleagues in the OSS find themselves up to their necks in battles every bit as fierce as the ones just ended. The first is political-the very survival of the OSS, with every department from Treasury to War to the FBI grabbing for its covert agents and assets. The second is on a much grander scale-the possible next world war, against Joe Stalin and his voracious ambitions. To get a jump on the latter, Frade has been conducting a secret operation, one of great daring-and great danger-but to conduct it and not be discovered, he and his men must walk a perilously dark line. One slip, and everyone becomes a casualty of war.

W.E. B. Griffin returns to his Honor Bound series set in the shadows of World War II espionage in South Americaâ¦
May 1945: Just weeks after Hitlerâs suicide, Cletus Frade and his colleagues in the Office of Strategic Services are fighting several new and deadly battles. The first is politicalâwith every department from Treasury to War to the FBI grabbing for OSS covert agents and assets. The second is militaryâwith the OSS having smuggled Germans into Argentina for years because of their knowledge of Soviet KGB agents in Americaâs atomic bomb program. The third concerns what might be the next world war against Red Joe Stalin and his voracious ambitions.
To get an early advantage, Frade has been conducting a secret and daring operation against the Communists. But to do it undetected, he and his men must walk a perilously dark line. Because all it takes is one slipâand everyone becomes a casualty of war.
