by Robert Harris (Author)

Vuelve el autor de Munich y Patria.

Al borde de la derrota, Hitler encarga 10.000 misiles V2 con los que espera aniquilar Londres...y ganar la guerra.

Noviembre de 1944. Rudi Graf es un ingeniero alem?n que so?aba con enviar cohetes a la luna, al que la guerra ha llevado hasta una peque?a localidad de la costa de Holanda. All? colabora con Wernher von Braun en el lanzamiento de los cohetes V2 que est?n destruyendo la capital brit?nica.

Kay Caton-Walsh es una joven oficial que trabaja para el gobierno brit?nico descifrando im?genes a?reas. Tras sobrevivir al ataque de un V2 mientras se encontraba con su amante en una habitaci?n de hotel, se presenta voluntaria para una misi?n secreta. En B?lgica, reci?n liberada de la ocupaci?n alemana, se va a montar un operativo para tratar de averiguar la ubicaci?n desde donde se env?an los cohetes. Armadas con una regla de c?lculo y algunas ecuaciones, Kay y sus compa?eras est?n decididas a localizar y destruir las lanzaderas de los misiles.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

From the bestselling author of Fatherland and Munich comes a WWII thriller about a German rocket engineer, a former actress turned British spy, and the Nazi rocket program.

The first rocket will take five minutes to hit London. You have six minutes to stop the second.

Rudi Graf is an engineer who always dreamed of sending rockets to the moon. But instead, he finds himself working alongside Wernher von Braun, launching V2 rockets at London for the Nazis from a bleak seaside town in occupied Holland. As the SS increases its scrutiny on the project, Graf, an engineer more than a soldier, has to muster all of his willpower to toe the party line. And when rumors of a defector circulate through the German ranks, Graf becomes a prime suspect.

Meanwhile, Kay Caton-Walsh, a young English intelligence officer, is living through the turmoil of war. After she and her lover, an RAF officer, are caught in a V2 attack, she volunteers to ship out for newly liberated Belgium. Armed with little more than a slide rule and a few equations, Kay and her colleagues hope to locate and destroy the launch sites. But at this stage in the war it's hard to know who, if anyone, she can trust.

As the death toll soars, these twin stories play out against the background of the German missile campaign during the Second World War. And what the reader comes to understand is that Kay's and Graf's destinies are on a collision course.
