Triple by Ken Follett

Follett often starts slow and almost boring and then he punches it!   This book purports to show how Israel got nuclear weapons.

First line is a good review is supposed to succinctly state what the book is about.  That means the rest of the lines really have to explain what was the book about.   Regardless of the premise, the book was an in-depth character study of a small group of people who met as young scholars at Oxrford.

It really plumbs the depths of two, Nat Dickstein and David Rostov. 

Nat, a concentration camp victim has dedicated his life to Israel and David to Russia.

Both men are flawed.   Others from that Oxford sherry party play roles in the book as well.

This was intricate and captivating which is the hallmark of this amazing author.

I really enjoyed it and highly recommend it. 

This book may have been received free of charge from a publisher or a publicist. That will NEVER have a bearing on my recommendations.
