The Fifth Column is a thrilling novel about the only man who can thwart a Nazi sympathizer uprising in New York during the Second World War, from bestselling author Andrew Gross. A Man in Trouble February 1939 and Europe is on the brink of war. Charles Mossman is in a bar in Hell's Kitchen, New York, reeling from the loss of his job and his failing marriage, whilst outside thousands of Nazi sympathizers are attending a hate-spewing rally. As he confronts one, Charles makes a horrendous mistake with deadly consequences. A City of Secrets Two years later, Charles is released from prison and tries to make amends with his wife and daughter. America is wrestling with whether to enter the war but support is growing, driving Nazi sympathizers underground. Charles begins to understand that surrounding them there are forces that will use any means necessary to bring about the downfall of his nation. The Enemy Within When Charles's daughter is befriended by a seemingly amiable Swiss couple, it brings to the surface his fears of a 'Fifth Column' of embedded German spies in their new neighbourhood. All Charles wants is to redeem himself as a husband and father, but sometimes a man must do whatever it takes to stand up for his family and what he believes, even sacrificing his life to do so . . .

When Frank Barrett meets Ramsay Davis at Ft. Walton Beach, Florida, he begins the next chapter of his life and marries her, quickly finding himself deeply in love and committed to his wife. But Frank must leave Ramsay behind when he reports for duty as a pilot in the US Air Force in December of 1970.

When Frank-nicknamed "Bee Sting" Barrett in the service-returns home to Florida as an ace captain, tragedy strikes. He is a witness as his beloved, pregnant wife is killed by a drug runner named Little Eddy. Revenge ravages Frank and compels him to pursue the man to Panama. Driven by grief and rage, he commits an unspeakable act, leaving Little Eddy for dead. Frank then returns to Florida to train for a second tour in Vietnam-only to see Eddy show up as well. Eddy is a loose cannon and the Mafia wants him dead, but he may get to Frank before they find him.

A story of love, loss, and revenge that travels from Florida to Panama and Southeast Asia, "Hollow Vengeance" follows Frank as he tries to find peace and get retribution for his wife's death-a quest that involves the trenches of the Mafia's drug ring in Tampa.

'Immersive' Guardian 'Stunning' Daily Express 'Riveting' Telegraph Victory is close. Vengeance is closer. Rudi Graf used to dream of sending a rocket to the moon. Instead, he has helped to create the world's most sophisticated weapon: the V2 ballistic missile, capable of delivering a one-ton warhead at three times the speed of sound. In a desperate gamble to avoid defeat in the winter of 1944, Hitler orders ten thousand to be built. Graf is tasked with firing these lethal 'vengeance weapons' at London. Kay Caton-Walsh is an officer in the Women's Auxiliary Air Force who joins a unit of WAAFs on a mission to newly liberated Belgium. Armed with little more than a slide rule and a few equations, Kay and her colleagues will attempt to locate and destroy the launch sites. As the death toll soars, Graf and Kay fight their grim, invisible war - until one final explosion of violence causes their destinies to collide...

Bomber Command is journalist and military historian Sir Max Hastings' compelling account of one of the most controversial struggles of the Second World War.

RAF Bomber Command’s offensive against the cities of Germany was one of the epic campaigns of the Second World War. More than 56,000 British and Commonwealth aircrew and 600,000 Germans died in the course of the RAF’s attempt to win the war by bombing. The struggle began in 1939 with a few primitive Whitleys, Hampdens and Wellingtons, and ended six years later with 1,600 Lancasters, Halifaxes and Mosquitoes razing whole cities in a single night.

Max Hastings traced the developments of area bombing using a wealth of documents, letters, diaries and interviews with key surviving witnesses. Bomber Command is, in turn, a fascinating, meticulously-researched, and vivid assessment of the RAF's integral role in the Second World War.

Over two and a half million Americans served in the Vietnam War. Of those who served, 58,148 gave their lives. Tyler Taylor is a complex and angry young man who drops out of college after he is kicked off the USC football team. His life is falling apart, his parents are separated, and he is in pain and has lost interest in nearly everything. Almost immediately, though, he is drafted into the army. Once in the army, he begins to see his life in a new light, particularly after experiencing the horrors of combat in the Vietnam War. Tyler and his two friends, John Raab and Mike Petrov, go from basic training to medical studies and into the airborne. Each of them comes from a different background, but they form a friendship that is united by their shared experience of war. They quickly learn how to be soldiers and in the process discover their own identities. His transformation from a troubled, angry youth continues when he meets Maggie in Australia while on R&R. Now all he has to do survive the jungles of the Vietnam War, so that he can return to the love that he has been missing in his life.

Gregg Thompson doesn't plan on going to war, but that quickly changes when he's drafted and sent to Vietnam. The young private finds that he's a fine soldier, but the military values him even more for his strategic thinking and smarts. He's promoted to captain and becomes a lawyer, defending the innocent and prosecuting war criminals. Thompson becomes a critical player in cases that reflect the social issues and problems affecting not only the military but the entire country including desertion, rape, armed robbery, conscientious objectors and much more. Justice is not always easy to interpret. When two soldiers get in a fight and an onlooker kills one of the fighters, it's up to Thompson to get a murder conviction. Other tough cases include a war hero who goes AWOL in Vietnam, a decorated major accused of selling high-ticket items on the black market and a soldier who disobeys an order that doesn't make much sense in the context of jungle warfare. Victories are not always won on the field of battle. Follow a master lawyer as he seeks justice in Boots and the Law, a portrait of American life during Vietnam.

History comes alive in God's Perfect Scar. A survivor of the 1944 Warsaw Uprising finds himself in Auschwitz, working with a woman prisoner to plan and implement a harrowing mass escape. A former Polish lancer turned airborne trooper turned English instructor at the University of Warsaw finds himself targeted by the Kremlin-controlled secret police. Two brothers find themselves conscripted by a pair of ambitious rulers, each itching to fire the first shot in a war that will ensnare soldiers and nurses from America, Britain, New Zealand and Korea. An American priest, a former World War II chaplain, finds himself playing street soccer in Rome and plotting a rescue in Warsaw. Bullets and shrapnel leave lasting scars - as do polio, treachery and guilt. Painstakingly researched, God's Perfect Scar is the story of ordinary people swept up in extraordinary, history-changing upheavals, contending with unrelenting stresses and making life-altering choices. During his research, Johnson learned about Aline Gartner, lost in the mists of time and history. In the pages of God's Perfect Scar, he "brings back to life" this remarkably courageous woman. From Auschwitz to Cracow to Warsaw, London, Moscow, Beijing, Kaesong, Seoul and small town America, God's Perfect Scar takes readers on a journey that provides a different and broader perspective on major happenings that have been shaping history for the last 60 years. As with Johnson's earlier works, Warrior Priest and Fate of the Warriors, the pacing in God's Perfect Scar is brisk, the tension palpable and the outcomes unpredictable.
