Negative Positive
Title: Mediocre at Best
Review: This was an extremely disappointing read. The plot... disguised, English speaking, German commandos infiltrating American lines during the Battle of the Bulge had potential...but when reading this genre, I expect the author to get the history right. This book is filled with annoying errors of fact, WW2 militry organization, and the type of accurate period detail that made it impossilble to "travel in time" to the final days of 1944 when so much hung in balance. The book simply ends and fast forwards ten years, leaving the reader to wonder how some of the protagonnists managed to end up where they ended up .Jack Higgens in his early WW2 fiction, Fredrick Forsythe in his early work, and Gerald Seymour in all of his work "get it right" creating interesting believable characters and a gripping plot line with attention to detail. Mr. Frost did not. Not recommended.
