    Best-selling author Neal Bascomb has garnered critical acclaim for such riveting nonfiction as Higher and Red Mutiny. Based on extensive interviews and previously classified details, Hunting Eichmann is a compelling account of the relentless hunt for the nefarious Adolf Eichmann.

    Story

    As the family member of generations of Jews who were murdered under this mans watch I appreciate the story of his capture, his trial and his ultimate death. This book gave me a glimpse into the heart of darkness without recreating to deeply the horrors of who was lost and how they were lost. While telling the the detailed story of what Eichmann did, it is more about the courage and heart of those who died and mostly those who hunted and captured pure evil in human form. It is right that there has been only one death sentence and execution by the state of Israel and that was reserved for this creature of history. I listened with rapt attention to every word. Great audio book, great listen and great narration.

    Charlie Wilson's War is the untold story behind the last battle of the Cold War and how it fueled the rise of militant Islam. George Crile tells how Charlie Wilson, a maverick congressman from east Texas, conspired with a rogue CIA operative to launch the biggest, meanest, and most successful covert operation in the agency's history.

    "If Robert Littell didn't invent the American spy novel," says Tom Clancy, "he should have." In this spectacular Cold-War-as-Alice-in-Wonderland epic, Littell, "the American le Carre," takes us down the rabbit hole and into the labyrinthine world of espionage that has been the CIA for the last half-century. "Ostensibly a single novel, [The Company] can also be read as an anthology of cracking good spy stories," says Publishers Weekly.

    Story

    Incredible, detailed and exciting. It takes a lot to keep me going with an audio book and this one has my rapt attention, i am winding down to the end and i want it to go on endlessly. great narration as well. The book is a great orchestration of events and people who draw you in. I have loved every second of the listen. This is a one in a decade book. This one was just as good for me as Clancy's Cardinal in the Kremlin, but even more clearly detailed and concise. a book for the ages...........Congratulation to Littell, Brick and every reader or listener......
