• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

What finally is the truth about a lost bomber discovered four hundred miles into the Libyan Desert from its base in Benghazi sixteen years after the War, and what is the truth about the notorious Israeli Nokmim revenge killers. And what is the famous Coco Chanel doing keeping company with a young German Waffen SS officer who is the favorite of Adolph Hitler.

And what is Hitler's personal interest in two obscure American inventors. And how did he plan to destroy the new Jewish state, using these inventions, many years after his death in his Berlin Bunker. These are just some of the ingredients of this fast paced novel of intrigue and adventure that will keep you guessing and entertained from beginning to end.

Darrell Egbert writes with a personal knowledge of his locales from the Kasbah at Tangier to the Medina and women's prison in the Bousbier of post-war Casablanca. This is another of his well written page turners that pushes the edge, and leaves you wondering how many of the participants he might have known personally.

Autorenporträt

Darrell Egbert was born in Layton, Utah, in 1925. He learned to read and write in a three-room schoolhouse, located in a mining town in the Oquirrah Mountains of Utah. He studied more serious writing while at the Universities of Nevada and Utah, and the art of "readable writing" while at the Air University in Montgomery, Alabama.
Like most young boys, he built model airplanes and dreamed of becoming a military pilot. His dream became reality, when, at the age of seventeen, he was accepted into the Army Air Corps. Soon after his eighteenth birthday, he was called to active duty where he spent the next two years of the War as an Aviation Cadet. He graduated from twin-engine school as a Flight Officer and first pilot of a medium bomber just as the atom bomb ended the War.
Upon graduating from the University of Utah, he applied for active duty, which coincided with America's entry into the Korean War. He spent most of his career until retirement in 1969 in staff positions involving the maintenance of bombers and missiles, both air to ground and inter-continental. His overseas assignments included such diverse places as French Morocco and Thule, Greenland. At Thule, he took a ground part in special photoreconnaissance missions, which helped bring about the fall of the Soviet Union and the end of the Cold War.
He began writing for publication when his first historical novel came to the attention of Barnes and Nobel. The Ravensbruck Legacy is his second in print.
Shortly after leaving the 44th Bomb Wing he met and married Miss Savannah of the Miss Georgia Beauty Pageant. Lieutenant Colonel Egbert and Betty, his bride of 56 years, are retired and live with their dog in Washington, Utah. As he is fond of saying, "I never had it so good"....
