How did the Cold War really get started? Why did Winston Churchill absolutely hate the Soviets? How did a B-24 bomber pilot from rural Connecticut become embroiled in a hazardous mission to Ukraine in the company of his lovely and adventurous bed-mate who just happened to be a spy for Britain's MI5 and the architect of a lust-driven love triangle? This novel of WWII begins with the chance discovery of an old flight log and piece of shrapnel in a Florida antique store that compelled a former B-24 ball turret gunner to finally reveal the long-forgotten secret mission to Ukraine in the fall of 1944... a mission that helped start what became known as the Cold War. Artifact follows in the tradition of World War II spy novelists like Ken Follett and Jack Higgins, bringing to life a fast-paced adventure smack dab in the middle of "Operation Frantic." Inspired by the author's father who flew 35 missions as a B-24 pilot, Mark Holmes uncovered the little-known operation, a disastrous and short-lived shuttle-bombing program that formed the backdrop for revealing how an unusual war artifact became the good-luck charm for all but one member of the crew.

Father Mark Barnett was a talented priest, doing extraordinary work for the Archdiocese of New York. Through his ministry, he touched the lives of scores of people, from politicians and financiers to common laborers and the homeless. Some called him a saint and a great friend, while others held him in contempt. Now, he's dead. The priest is brutally murdered, in the early morning, on a dark Manhattan street. Why was he there, what did he do, what did he know, and what might he have had that someone wanted bad enough to kill for or have him killed? The investigation into his death is seen as critical enough to be given the highest priority by the New York Police Department, the district attorney, and the Cardinal Archbishop of New York. As the clues in the case are brought to light, the detectives assigned to it find that a terrible mistake took place in the recent past. They begin to unravel the mystery that has almost everyone who ever dealt with the priest, in recent years, waiting for the outcome and whether the finger of guilt might be pointed at one of them.

Ocean Beach, San Diego, better known as OB, is located on Point Loma. Nothing stops the summer influx of tourists, fugitives, and gypsies from coming nearly as far southwest in the continental US as one can go. On any given day, you will see the unofficial mayor of OB holding court on the seawall by the pier. Paul "Pops" O'Hagen tells the tale of his life before and after prison as he encourages the younger surfers to not do what he did. Pops's troubles are not in the past, though. The person who used to be his best friend but betrayed him by lying in court still poses a threat.

Osprey's examination of the B-26 Marauder Units' participation in World War II (1939-1945). The revolutionary design of the B-26 and its associated flight characteristics initially gained it a reputation as a 'widow maker' receiving nicknames such as 'The Baltimore Whore' and 'The Flying Prostitute' - both a reference to its short wingspan, i.e. no visible means of support! Gradual improvements to the design and the development of effective combat tactics enabled these units to make the B-26 a very effective and safe combat aircraft; it went on to play a major role in the defeat of Axis forces in North Africa, Italy, France and Germany. The bombing accuracy of the B-26s was unrivalled and they were therefore selected to bomb targets such as the Florentine rail network. Lt General Eaker MAAF CO said. 'When we teach the B-17s to bomb like the B-26s we will have accomplished our job'.Hastily trained on an airplane with a bad reputation and rushed into combat in North Africa, the MTO B-26 groups went on to gain an enviable reputation for bombing accuracy and low combat loss rate. Performing the dangerous close support and interdiction roles, the units played a major role in the defeat of Axis forces in North Africa, Italy and Germany. They proved the B-26 to be a highly reliable, effective medium bomber - indeed, an MTO-based B-26 was the first ever USAAF bomber to reach the 100-mission mark. It was the three MTO Bombardment Groups that established the Marauder as one of the USAAF's truly great aircraft of World War II.
