Produktbeschreibung
Told from the perspective of Soviet soldiers during an imagined Russian invasion of Western Europe, Ralph Peter—a former-military intelligence veteran and bestselling novelist—delivers an unsettling, gripping piece of Cold War fiction based on real events. Set in a fictionalized World War III, forces of the Soviet Union prepare to invade West Germany in three coordinated strikes while Western leaders, caught in the haze of nuclear policy debates, leave NATO defenses dangerously exposed. Within days, roads are clogged and cities fall as the USSR launches a brutal offensive, revealing just how severely unprepared the NATO armies were for such a deadly attack. Told through the eyes of characters ranging from a young private clinging to dreams of music and peace to a high-ranking general upholding generational military duty, Red Army is a vivid and propulsive alternate history thriller that immerses us in the psychological toll of modern warfare.
