VIRTUAL TALK: “Night of the Assassins” with Howard Blum

Tehran, 1943.  Allied leaders Franklin D. Roosevelt, Winston Churchill and Joseph Stalin have planned a top-secret conference.  The problem—the Nazis had already learned about it. Although the war is undoubtedly lost, Hitler sees it as his last chance to turn the tide. A new set of Allied leaders just might be willing to make a more reasonable peace.  But first, he’d have to take out the old ones. Permanently. The plan—code name Operation Long Jump—raced into motion.  The hand-picked, highly trained, Nazi assassins, lead by the killer known as The Most Dangerous Man in Europe, parachuted into Iran. The team had six days to complete the daring assignment before the statesmen returned home.  And now—the twist. The Nazi plot is exposed. And, with no margin for error and little time to spare, Mike Reilly, the head of FDR’s Secret Service detail must work with a Soviet agent from the NKVD (the precursor to the KGB) to save the three most powerful men in the world. An impossible mission, a ticking clock, and nonstop suspense!  The stakes couldn’t be higher in this true-life tale.
