The Nazis were never defeated. They were just biding their time...

Summer, 2025. A US senator is burned to death in his Washington townhouse. Masked gunmen massacre supporters during a football match in Berlin. And an old man is murdered while he sleeps in the dementia ward of a German hospital. Three apparently unconnected events, three steps on the countdown to apocalypse.

When journalist and podcaster Georg Miller starts joining the dots between them, he finds himself the target of professional killers. His investigation soon reveals that his would-be assassins are from an organisation known as the Odessa, a menacing and powerful Nazi group intent on regaining power.

The Odessa has spread its poison from a covert compound in the Bavarian countryside all the way to the halls of the American Capitol. And now, as their campaign to destabilise the Western political system accelerates, Georg must stop the next attack, before it changes the course of history…

Published in the shadow of Forsyth’s passing, this sequel to the classic, half-a-century-old blockbuster brings the story of the Odessa bang up to date. Drawing on contemporary narratives, Forsyth and Kent expertly weave tension, pace and suspense into a ticking clock thriller that scarcely lets up from the electrifying opening to the explosive finale. Outstanding. * Vaseem Khan *
The long-awaited sequel to...The Odessa File is every bit as dramatic as you'd expect. * Daily Express *

A grandmaster of thriller writing and one of its rising stars combine to deliver a blistering, all-too-plausible, tension-soaked tale that hits like a sniper’s bullet. Explosive, chilling, and impossible to put down. * Adam Hamdy *
A twisting, up-to-the-minute thriller that effortlessly blends Forsyth’s classic style with Kent’s modern pace and punch. Revenge of Odessa is a book for the fraught geopolitics of our times. * Mason Cross *
