A Perfect Waste of Time
Revisado: 04-29-16
Dumb story line; world class art restorer, expert black ops, friend of presidents, give me a break. Totally over the top and crudely Jewish prejudice also. Real propaganda as well.

Autumn 1942. Hitler's legions have swept across Europe; France has fallen; Churchill and the English stand isolated on their island. In North Africa, Rommel and his Panzers have routed the British Eighth Army and stand poised to overrun Egypt, Suez, and the oil fields of the Middle East.

Hard to follow, descriptions impossible to figure where it took place unless you perhaps lived in the desert, character development poor, lastly only a very few lines about Rommel. I feel like wasted time by this book.

When a fragile peace breaks down and promptly devolves into a rapidly escalating shooting war between Pakistan and India, the U.S. must intervene. With only hours remaining before the conflict reaches a deadly point of no return, the White House must find a way to shut it down immediately or risk the likelihood of a new global war. A radical cleric has become the democratically elected president of Pakistan and uses a brutal incident in the Kashmir region as an opportunity to ignite war with India. The highly lethal conventional war spins out of control when Pakistan initiates a nuclear attack.
