Kruger's Korps de H. W. Crocker, III

Kruger's Korps

Autor H. W. Crocker, III
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 2 iul 2026
It’s lugers and panzers in a deadly game of espionage with an American spy behind enemy lines in World War II.

Name: Rolf Kruger
Rank: Ensign, US Navy
Assignment: Intelligence Officer to Colonel William “Wild Bill” Donovan, director of the Office of Strategic Services, to serve as an OSS spy.
Mission: Infiltrate a top-secret Afrika Korps unit.
The Stakes: Perhaps the outcome of the war.

Operation Torch is about to get underway: the Allied invasion of northwest Africa. The Germans know this, and a secret Afrika Korps unit is at work.

Allied officials are unsure of the unit’s purpose—but they fear the worst.

For the British, the nightmare scenario is a Nazi-instigated Islamic jihad—and a strike against the Suez Canal.

For the Americans, the looming danger is Vichy France—Nazi Germany’s ally—hurling artillery shells and spitting machine gun bullets against the American landings in Algeria and Morocco.

And there is another risk: The possible development of a supersecret weapon, somewhere in Africa, by a mysterious SS military engineer.

Rolf Kruger, a German-born but American-raised OSS agent is sent on a daring mission to impersonate a German officer newly assigned to the secret Afrika Korps unit, uncover the unit’s purpose, and foil it.

His friends are few, the dangers are many, and his loyalties will be tested in a crucible of war—and a deadly competition of spies.

Recenzii

“H.W. ‘Harry’ Crocker III, is perhaps the most incredibly versatile author America has yet to produce in the 21st century. Whether he is writing fiction, or about military history, current political events, religious history, or virtually any other topic, his clear prose is a delight to read, and his meticulous research is irrefutable. Crocker carries his reader along with him into the field of espionage and the work of the legendary Office of Strategic Services (OSS), as the Nazis conquer most of Europe and North Africa, World War II nears its tipping point, and the fate of the world hangs in the balance. I don’t want to give anything away, but Kruger’s Korps is a continuation of the Crocker tradition of excellence. The reader will not be disappointed.”
“H.W. Crocker III is always worth reading, whether it's his panoramic history of the church, his fanciful fictional reimagining of the Wild West, or this newest adventure set during World War II. Kruger's Korps is animated by its author’s wit and wisdom, offering an all too rare balance of levitas and gravitas which make it much more than a mere historical thriller. The reader who opens its pages should expect to be amazed by the breadth of Crocker’s knowledge of history, literature, and popular culture, all of which spice the narrative with literary flair.”
“Reminiscent of Joseph Heller’s Catch-22... it’s a well-written story with an entertaining plot, amusing characters, and enough thought-provoking depth to be more than simply a wartime thriller.”
“A quintessentially American adventure that transports the reader back to the can-do optimism of the World War II era...pursuing patriotic ideals by tackling every impossible challenge with infinite resource and sagacity....A thrill a minute.... Harry Crocker is always a clever writer, but he outdoes himself here.”
“Kruger's Korps is a heck of a lot of fun, with plenty of action and a surprising amount of wry humor.”
