Operation Glenn Miller — Leo Kessler

The latest in the SS Wotan series, based on the mysterious disappearance of Glenn Miller on 15 December 1944 Winter 1944: Part of the plan of the Battle of the Bulge is the assassination of the Allied Supreme Commander, General Eisenhower in Paris.

But first, Glenn Miller has to be replaced...
