Acerca de esta escucha

Combining the pulsating drive of Showtime's Homeland with the fascinating historical detail of such of narrative nonfiction bestsellers as Double Cross and In the Garden of Beasts, Dark Invasion is Howard Blum’s gritty, high-energy true-life tale of German espionage and terror on American soil during World War I, and the NYPD Inspector who helped uncover the plot - the basis for the film to be produced by and starring Bradley Cooper.

When a “neutral” United States becomes a trading partner for the Allies early in World War I, the Germans implement a secret plan to strike back. A team of saboteurs - including an expert on germ warfare, a Harvard professor, and a brilliant, debonair spymaster - devise a series of “mysterious accidents” using explosives and biological weapons, to bring down vital targets such as ships, factories, livestock, and even captains of industry like J. P. Morgan.

New York Police Inspector Tom Tunney, head of the department’s Bomb Squad, is assigned the difficult mission of stopping them. Assembling a team of loyal operatives, the cunning Irish cop hunts for the conspirators among a population of more than eight million Germans. But the deeper he finds himself in this labyrinth of deception, the more Tunney realizes that the enemy’s plan is far more complex and more dangerous than he suspected.Full of drama and intensity, Dark Invasion is riveting war thriller that chillingly echoes our own time.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Terrifically engaging and pertinent.... Instructive, yes, but also as engrossing as good detective fiction." ( Kirkus Reviews)
"[A] worthwhile page-turner, combining the best features of a police procedural and a spy novel with a firm base in verifiable events." ( Publishers Weekly)
"Sounds like a pretty good espionage thriller…. In fact, it’s nothing less than authentic - albeit long-forgotten - American history, brought to vivid life." ( Vanity Fair)

German American Intrigue in World War I

Howard Blum weaves a great narrative about Germany's attempts to keep America out of the war, but also keep America from supplying munitions to the Allies. It's clever saboteurs against undaunted detective work.
