Righteous Kill (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781909269415)

'MAJESTIC STORYTELLING ... A TOUR DE FORCE' John Templeton Smith

October 1940: a raiding party of elite soldiers arrives in the middle of Nazi-occupied France on a deadly mission.

But these are not troops from Britain's new commando units. They are modern-day Israeli special forces operators armed with sophisticated 21^st-century weaponry.

Dispatched eight decades into the past by a genius physicist who stumbled across the secret of time travel, their task is simple - ambush Adolf Hitler's personal train, kill everyone on board and change the course of history.

Yet, even if these Israeli soldiers manage to pull off the most extraordinary commando raid ever conceived, there's no guarantee they'll make it home again.

RIGHTEOUS KILL takes a daring premise and weaves it into a gripping, action-packed military thriller. It traces the journey of a few courageous men who step into the ultimate unknown on a mission to save millions of lives that will otherwise be lost in the maelstrom of war and the Holocaust.

Written by a former Israeli army officer, RIGHTEOUS KILL is a riveting blend of authentic military detail and history-altering combat fiction. It's the perfect fit for fans of Vince Flynn, Andy McNab, Eric Flint, Harry Turtledove and John Birmingham.
