Description
Operation Finisterre was a last-ditch plan to enable Hitler to deny the logic of a war on two fronts and bluff his way to the negotiating table. German intelligence launched this desperate bid for survival in October 1944, as dozens of cities lay in ruins and enemy armies closed in.
The success of Operation Finisterre depended on two individuals: Stefan Portisch, a German naval officer stranded on the coast of Spain after losing his U-boat, and Hector Gomez, an ex-FBI detective planted deep within the American atomic bomb complex. Both men would find themselves fighting for survival as this operation unfolded.
Finisterre is part of the SPOILS OF WAR Collection, a thrilling blend of fact and fiction that brings to life some of the most tragic and suspenseful events of World War II. With its non-chronological structure, this collection allows readers to explore Graham Hurley's masterful storytelling in any order.
