The story is based on a true story. I worked with Lt. Taylor's cousin on the story line. Jack Taylor joined the ROTC while in college--he became a dentist after graduation and when WW II started he asked to be called up. He went into the OSS (the forrunner of the CIA) and served in Europe, parachuting behind enemy lines and gathering information about German and Italian troop movements and aircraft count. He was captured by the NAZIs towards the end of the war and was placed in Mauthausen Concentration Camp. He was set free by an Army Staff Sergeant just two days before he was due to be shot. This story takes the reader along with Lt. Tayler behind enemy lines. At times you feel as if you were part of his team.
