Last Flight to Stalingrad: Spoils of War
Autor Graham Hurleyen Limba Engleză Paperback – 8 iul 2021
Then they came to Stalingrad.
Berlin, 1942. Werner Nehmann, journalist at the Nazi Ministry of Propaganda, has experienced the dizzying victories of the last four years like a party without end. But the Reich's attention has turned East with the invasion of the Soviet Union, and as winter sets in, the mood is turning.
Werner is a close confidant of his boss, Joseph Goebbels, who refuses to let German morale falter now. But the Nazi chiefs each have their own agendas.
Amid the power struggles, Werner will make a catastrophic mistake, and begin his descent into hell at the Battle of Stalingrad, wintry grave of over a million people.
Last Flight to Stalingrad is part of the SPOILS OF WAR Collection, a beguiling blend of fact and fiction born of some of the most tragic, suspenseful, and action-packed events of World War II. From highly acclaimed thriller author GRAHAM HURLEY, this blockbuster non-chronological collection allows the reader to explore Hurley's masterful storytelling in any order, with compelling recurring characters whose fragmented lives mirror the war that shattered the globe.
