⭐⭐⭐⭐☆

Lachman’s detailed narrative takes us back to June 4, 1944, just before D-Day, when a US Navy task force achieved the impossible by capturing a German U-Boat, along with its crew, technology, and encryption codes. Through the eyes of both American heroes and German U-Boaters, Lachman paints a vivid picture of Operation Nemo, a thrilling cat-and-mouse game that undoubtedly shortened the duration of the war.

What struck me most about this book is the incredible bravery and skill of the men involved. Their courage in the face of danger is truly inspiring, and Lachman does an excellent job of bringing their stories to life.

The level of research that went into this book is clear on every page, and Lachman’s fast-paced storytelling keeps you hooked from start to finish. It’s a fascinating glimpse into a little-known chapter of World War II history, and I couldn’t put it down.

If you’re looking for a gripping and well-researched war narrative, this book is definitely worth a read. Trust me, you won’t be disappointed!
