SINS OF WAR.

Product Description A true story. In 1942, America was losing the war – until a priest, the mob and a woman Naval lieutenant joined forces to save the country. From the Author I love true stories. And Sins of War takes the cake. It’s a strange, compelling tale about three odd characters, thrown together to fight the Nazis in the Second World War. When I first ran across it, the story reminded me somewhat of “The Dirty Dozen”. This edition of Sins of War is being published by Simon & Schuster as a “noteworthy” book. I think you’ll find that to be true too. From the Back Cover 1942. America was losing the war. And one of the most bizarre, true stories every imagined, took place. With the New York docks working at a desperate pace to send troops and supplies overseas, German U-boats, off the coast, were sinking most of the ships. In desperation, President Roosevelt begged Cardinal Spellman to convince Lucky Luciano to help uncover and stop the Nazi terrorist cells that were radioing reports to the subs. The result was a disgraced priest, the top Mafia mobster in the nation, and a U.S. Navy woman officer–all working together in a strange alliance to save the country. The results were unexpected and shocking.
