A fantastic follow up to the preceding books in this series. I find this whole area of history so interesting, as people in my generation (I'm 71) and later have no idea of the Theater of War as it existed in South America. As a woman I'm not usually drawn to books about wars, even in a historical sense, but Mr. Griffin's other series' involving Philadelphia policemen, and the Presidential Agent series seem to have no gender preference, it is the same with this story line. His books have enough action and background to be a great story for both men and women. The author puts so much detail into the story that it is really "almost like being there."
Good book
I'm happy to say this book was a page turner, probably due to my interest in World War II. Despite it's 760 pages I finished it in a few days. I'm doubly happy to report there was no sex described in the book, despite Griffin's son being a co-author. In other books of other series for which he was a co-author, the amount of sex described was way over the top to the point were they could almost be described as soft porn.
But I was surprised the authors listed numerous instances of their characters---men of great responsibility---giving each other the finger. Makes you wonder about their maturity.

I've been a W.E.B. Griffin fan for many years ... ever since the 'Brotherhood' and Corp books. Haven't been disappointed yet.
