7. 'A Thousand Suns', by Alex Scarrow

Nov 2018

Historical military fiction about the Nazi regime making a last-ditch effort in the closing days of the war to send a capture B-17 with a nuclear bomb to NYC to turn us against the Russians that are making their way to Berlin. Bounces back and forth between today and 1945, starting with the discovery on the plane (with most of the crew still aboard) off the coast of Rhode Island.

I am enjoying it.
