0"A fast-paced, smart debut novel that blends noir and Lovecraftian elements. If you like J.J. Abram's alternate history Overlord, this book is for you." --James Kestrel, author of Five Decembers
1950. The Cold War simmers, and ex-GI Jack Waters is called in to investigate a fatal accident at a research lab in California.
When Waters recognizes the victim, he realizes he must revisit his hidden past in World War II to solve a murder and prevent Nazi scientists from creating a terrible, new weapon in America.
Blending noir detective fiction with post-WWII history, The Man from Mittelwerk builds from the facts of Operation Paperclip, the U.S. government's secret recruitment of 1,600 top Nazi scientists, to pose a dark what-if scenario.
