This review is from: The Croesus Conspiracy (Mass Market Paperback)

This book is such a deeply written spy drama, so full of mystery that I literally couldn't put it down. Having been a fan of great novels dealing in the Jewish terror during Hitlers reign, such as The Diary of Anne Frank, The Upper Room, etc. It was interesting to find such a book so articulate in manner, that it held my attention so tight. The belief that our top US Gonernment officals could be duped so much, made it hard to remember that it IS fiction. With as many twists and turns, even today this book could become such a Blockbuster Motion Picture, that it could easily vie for an Oscar. Ben Stein has such a versatile imagination, that I will have no problem buying anymore of this authors books.
