Book excerpt: The time was 1944, a critical period in World War II. The Allies were just beginning to get a foothold on the Axis stronghold. But Hitler was stubbornly holding back the pressure and bragging about his secret arsenal of super-weapons. Intelligence reports were coming in of huge concrete installations and underground constructions, and Allied scientists were feverishly searching for the anser to the one crucial question that plagued their governments: Did the Nazis have the secret of the Atomic bomb? To find the answer Col. Borish T. Pash was directed to head a dangerous intelligence operation at times through the front lines of both the Allies and the Axis. Its code was the Alsos Mission.
