The enemy of my enemy
Griffin, W. E. B.
Genre:
Special agent James Cronley Jr. finds that fighting both ex-Nazis and the Soviet NKGB can lead to strange bedfellows
in the dramatic new Clandestine Operations novel about the birth of the CIA and the Cold War. A month ago
Cronley managed to capture two notorious Nazi war criminals
but not without leaving some dead bodies and outraged Austrian police in his wake. He's been lying low ever since
but that little vacation is about to end. Somebody--Odessa
the NKGB
the Hungarian Secret Police?--has broken the criminals out of jail
and he must track them down again. But there's more to it than that. Evidence has surfaced that in the war's last gasps
Heinrich Himmler had stashed away a fortune to build a secret religion
dedicated both to Himmler and to creating the Fourth Reich. That money is still out there in the hands of Odessa
and that infamous organization seems to have acquired a surprising--and troubling--ally. Cronley is fast finding out that the phrase "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" can mean a lot of different things
and that it is not always clear which people he can trust and which are out to kill him.
