Rating: Summary: Honor before blood Review: Two friends: Jack and Harry are separated by war in 1939. Jack must spearhead mission to assassinate both Churchill and Roosevelt, while Harry finds himself working the security forces to protect the two world leaders as they discuss the Normandy invasion.
Jack and Harry love the same woman Rachel. (Okay, so it is a predictable triangle, but that's okay - it works for this story.) The three find themselves confronting each other in a series of escalating developments as they seek to accomplish their respective missions.
The story is based on an actual event and a German mission that almost happened. This is the type of plot that Mr. Meade excels at.
If you like fiction where the line is blurred between fact and fancy, then this is the book for you.
