Ordinary Heroes

[General Mayhem]

This is a novel by Scott Turow, set in the last months of the second world war. David Dubin, an idealistic young lawyer, is sent to the European Front to bring charges against American hero, Robert Martin. The latter has become a liability and the authorities want him neutralised.

As Dubin learns about Martin, he finds himself drawn to Martin's ex-mistress.

This is a gem of a read, although the author declares it to be fiction, the plot and sub-plots can only come from real life.

The publisher is Pan MacMillan & it cost £6.99 in paperback.
