( ) Una nueva misión lleva al excomandante del SAS británico, Ben Hope, a conocer a Maximilian Steiner. Este multimillonario suizo está convencido de encontrarse en el punto de mira de una siniestra célula terrorista neonazi que busca un documento que podrÃa apoyar sus tesis negacionistas. Apenas comienza a profundizar en la investigación, Ben descubre que el grupo también está decidido a reconstruir un aterrador ingenio tecnológico que ha permanecido inactivo desde la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Sin embargo, cuando una sobrecogedora revelación sobre su propio pasado pone patas arriba la misión que le han encomendado, tendrá que echar mano de todos sus recursos para abortar el funesto complot. I picked up Shadow Project without realising it was part of a series, rather because I enjoy a well told romp about the discover of old nazi technology and the blurb indicated that's what this was about. A mysterious technology which has lain dormant since world war 2 that has been rediscovered and an aggressively violent bunch of criminals is kidnapping scientists in an attempt to force them to make it work. All the while the main character, Ben Hope, bumbles into this scenario whilst working for a swiss billionaire who narrowly avoids being kidnapped by neo-nazis in an attempt to compel him to produce a document from his collection which allegedly can prove the holocaust never happened. I found the story to be decent, the nazi it's based on actually existed, although not in the capacity detailed in the book, the layers of story telling were good and the ending wrapped things up nicely. I also found I was not worse off for having not realised this was part of a series - there's plenty of character background there for the purposes of an action slash adventure story. This is another good read in the Ben Hope series, with good links to the Second World War and the research programmes the SS undertook. I do like this series and a lot of information is found out about incidents in Ben's past and links well to his future relationships. Ben comes across as more down to Earth in this one and even makes mistakes! I have preferred some of the other books in this series, but it is still a very good read. 4 Stars. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
