This review is from: Day Of Judgement (Hardcover)

Jack Higgins is a reliable, workmanlike author who cranked out a score or more books like this back in the 70's and 80's. Starting with "The Eagle Has Landed" (hereafter "Eagle"), he wrote like a factory, producing a great many almost identical thrillers, only a few of which really measured up to "Eagle". This book, "Day of Judgement", is a work that, in my opinion, meassures up to, and in some waays surpasses "Eagle". Set at the height of the Cold War, "Day of Judgement's" plot focuses on an East German effort to deflect the impact of US President John F. Kennedy's forthcoming visit to Berlin, where history tells us he made his electrifying "Ich bin ein Berliner" speech. The East Germans want to nullify the projected effect of Kennedy's visit, so they kidnap a beloved Roman Catholic priest and try to "brainwash" him into making anti-US statements.. Great character development, excellent pacing, a very plausable series of events and a suprisingly spiritual resolution of the story add up to an all-around great read. I recommend this book highly.
