Speaker 1: Welcome to the WBZ Book Club. I'm Jordan Rich. For
Speaker 1: those of you who have seen the movie Conclave, you
Speaker 1: might know it's based on a novel by Robert Harris,
Speaker 1: who also wrote a terrific book called Fatherland many years ago,
Speaker 1: while in twenty twenty he published V two, and this
Speaker 1: is a World War thriller as well, based on the
Speaker 1: Nazis hopes to turn the war their way with the
Speaker 1: introduction of the deadly V two rockets that rained down
Speaker 1: on London. Story bounces back and forth between the German
Speaker 1: scientists and military personnel launching the weapons, and a young
Speaker 1: female intelligence analyst working for the British Army who's trying
Speaker 1: to pinpoint the origin of the rockets so the RAF
Speaker 1: can take them out. A blend of fact and fiction
Speaker 1: with characters such as Germany's rocket engineer Werner von Braun,
Speaker 1: who you may recall, helped lead America into space after
Speaker 1: the war. This is a typical Robert Harris thriller, with
Speaker 1: incredible detail of the technology and the destructive power of
Speaker 1: the V two rockets terrorizing our allies. A World War
Speaker 1: two novel. I recommend V two by Robert Harris, and
Speaker 1: that's the book Club. WBZ, Boston's news radio
