The Valkyrie Plan. By Jesús Hernández. Translated by Sigrún Á. Eiríksdóttir.
July 20, 1944. Objective: To overthrow Hitler. All about the conspiracy that could have changed the history of the 20th century.
Jesús Hernández's book about the famous assassination attempt on Hitler deals with the lead-up, development and consequences of the coup attempt. Twelve hours passed from the time the bomb exploded until the plot was brutally suppressed.
Hernández, a journalist and writer with a degree in modern history and information science, says that the book required research similar to that used in detective novels. In fact, the author writes the book like a crime novel and admirably manages to infuse his work with escalating suspense. Which is certainly no mean feat, since everyone knows that Hitler was not killed. Hernández is the best-selling author in Spain of books about the Second World War, and he makes a great effort to write in an accessible style and to organize the narrative in such a way that the reader enjoys reading it. This book fulfills these requirements with great distinction, as well as recounting dramatic events that are bound to touch those who read about them.
