Near the end of World War II, German scientists, goaded on by Hitler and his dreaded SS chief Himmler, have developed and tested a secret death ray. When the Allied command cracks the Nazi code, General Eisenhower hurriedly assigns Ken Prossr and his team to find that terrible weapon and destroy it. Time is of the essence, since Hitler plans to unleash it against the advancing Allied armies in just a few days. Col. Prossr and his men parachute into the Austrian Alps and a British agent guides them to the hidden valley where Hitler's "miracle weapon" is being assembled. She has learned that the death ray will come from one hundred jet planes concealed in caves. Prossr and his team fight their way into a dam, force open its gates and flood the caves. Barely in time, the Nazi planes and their death-ray equipment are totally destroyed. So, also, is the factory producing them in the hidden valley.

Upon graduating with a Ph.D. in Science & Engineering, George Chernish embarked on a long career in advanced technical research for well-known firms such as SYLVANIA, RCA, TRW, and Aerojet-General Corporation. While thus employed, he also wrote many technical articles for the science journals and was awarded a number of patents in electronic design. Over the years, the author met many high-ranking military personnel (General Omar Bradley attended his doctoral graduation) and this propelled him into a lengthy research about the World War II years. Drawing on his experience in writing and publishing a goodly number of short stories, he decided to write a World War II novel. THE GLORY BEAM represents years of research about that conflict, including many interviews with German scientists of that era. His novel contains incidents and facts never before revealed. Today, the author is retired and living in Southern California. He maintains a small facility for alternative-energy research.
