With a plot that echoes The Day of the Jackal and The Eagle Has Landed, this thrilling tale of courage, resilience, and betrayal reads like a classic World War II thriller. In 1942 two men, trained by the British SOE, parachuted back into their native Czechoslovakia with one sole objective: to kill the man ruling their homeland. Jan Kubis and Josef Gabcik risked everything for their country. Their attempt on Reinhard Heydrich’s life was one of the single most dramatic events of World War II, and had horrific consequences for thousands of innocent people. Heydrich was a man so evil even fellow SS officers referred to him as the "Blond Beast." In Prague, he was known as the Hangman. Hitler, who dubbed him "The Man with the Iron Heart," considered Heydrich his heir, and entrusted him with the implementation of the "Final Solution" to the Jewish "problem:" the systematic murder of 11 million people.
