“Ken Follett has done it once more . . . goes down with the ease and impact of a well-prepared martini.” —New York Times Book ReviewHis name was Feliks.

Terrific characters in an unpredictable story. Ken Follett at his best.
The story is somewhat predictable. That it is based on a true story makes it more interesting. Ken Follet’s characters are always well developed.
