    About this audiobook

    In the death throes of World War II, one man is still at war, and he's got got the world's deadliest weapon in his hands . . .

    With a sniper's rifle he has calmly executed hundreds of enemy soldiers in a single battle, and gunned down thousands of innocent civilians in a single day, waiting patiently for the barrel of his gun to cool before resuming his craft . . .

    It is the spring of 1945. And Repp, the master sniper, is about to carry out his final mission—even as Germay's enemies overrun it, even while a tired, disorganized team of American and British agents tries everything in its power to stop him. Because for Repp, this is the one job at which he cannot fail. For this time, he possesses the ultimate killing tool. And with it, he will commit the ultimate crime. . . .

      Sep 29, 2022

      In your new book you discuss a myth of Colditz that needs to be challenged. What is this myth and how did it come about? Those of us of a certain age grew up with the great BBC TV series about Colditz and, also, in my case, the board game Escape from
