O'Connell soon realizes the OSS mission to support the Resistance in Occupied Europe is more than just sabotage and subversion. It also means staying alive behind the lines when you rarely know who is friend and who is your enemy. Reassigned to India in late 1944, Peter and his British colleagues work to destroy a Nazi sabotage ring based in Goa. Success in this operation uncovers O'Connell's treasure - Nazi gold and his future wife."Seeger has crafted a fast-paced narrative which carries the reader to multiple hotspots during WWII.
