V4 Vengeance: Hitler’s Last Vengeance Weapons Are Going To War is a terrorist thriller by Nigel Seed. Major Jim Wilson, desperate to find a job after the British Army downsizes, accepts an assignment from Romanoff, a wealthy Russian, to search for a hidden World War 2 U boat base in Germany. He and his team find submarines and missiles at the base and repair them for a museum exhibit. Unknown to them, Romanoff has other plans for the war weapons that Hitler didn’t get the chance to use. He double-crosses the ex-soldiers and launches the deadly gas-filled missiles at New York. Jim gets into serious trouble with the authorities, but is willing to risk his life to prevent Romanoff from carrying out more terrorist attacks.
“A blast from the past” is precisely what has taken place in V4 Vengeance: Hitler’s Last Vengeance Weapons Are Going To War. This gripping thriller was certainly not short on action and drama. Nigel Seed’s meticulous writing will enable readers to visualize some of the atrocities that Hitler and his army committed. It did amuse me, though, to see how Jim and his team tried to outwit Romanoff and his henchmen. The story and characters are fully developed and believable. I thought the prologue was interesting as it set the tone for a fascinating read. There are so many surprising twists in this thriller, even a couple of the characters who had unassuming roles amazed me in the end. I enjoyed this thriller immensely.
