"The Billy Boyle books always scare me to death but that's what he and his fellow soldiers are facing each book so...... I really enjoyed this one. It took us to a place I have visited as a tourist but hope its reality today is nothing like described in this particular book."

Death’s Door Listener Reviews

" The main story action takes place in the Vatican during WWII. Benn's characters are enjoyable and the plotting quick. The politics of neutrality are an interesting sub-plot. "

" I found the first of this series free on Amazon. I've gone on to read all of them. I enjoy reading fiction about WWI and WWII and Jamess Benn does a nice job of describing what's true and what's not. "

" Having heard of the complicity of Pope Pius during WW II, it eas fascinating to read a different perspectve n the subject. I also really appreciated the setting of the story in Vatican City and learning how the government of Vatican City works. "

" This is one of Benn's best. I enjoy the entire series, but I thought that this one was gripping. "
— Marlene, 12/30/2013 -
" Not the best in the series. I think because it took place in one static location. I'm a huge fan of the series "
— Esteban, 10/5/2013 -
" This is a dandy little series about an army lieutenant charged with investigating murders during WWII. The author does a great job bringing the agonies of war down to a personal level. This one in the series has some interesting twists in the story that we never saw coming. "
— Ginny, 7/18/2013 -

— David, 9/17/2012 -
