First published in 1984, the book takes place in Berlin in the
summer of 1961, just as the Berlin Wall is about to slam shut the
last escape route out of Eastern Europe. President Kennedy needs to
know what the Soviets are planning and Oakes is sent to acquire the
answers. His contact, Henri Tod, is leader of the Bruderschaft, a
secret group of German Dissidents. Tod has a plan to change the
future of the free world but when he goes missing, Blackford locks
horns with Walter Ulbricht, East Germany's unscrupulous communist
boss and wins a moral victory for the West. Blackford Oakes novels
have always had a very wide appeal, as readers are drawn by the
delightful characters and intricate plots. "The Story of Henri Tod"
and "A Very Private Plot" have plenty of both.
