Samenvatting
Hell Above Earth tells the unforgettable story of two World War Two American bomber pilots who forged an unexpected but enduring bond in the flak-filled skies over Nazi Germany. But there's a twist. One of them was related to the head of the Luftwaffe, Reich Marshal Herman Goering, and the other had secret orders from FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover, to kill him if anything went wrong during their missions. A heart-wrenching story of friendship forged in the fires of war, an adrenalin-filled account of aerial combat, and an exquisite work of popular history, HELL ABOVE EARTH centres around the author's discovery of a half-centuryold secret that has farreaching and deeply personal repercussions for the pilots, and profound consequences for the FBI and the 'Mighty' Eighth Air Force.
