The Salzburg Connection

By: Helen MacInnes

Narrated by: Robert Fass

He demanded the immediate dispatch of two suitably trained operatives to Salzburg. Extreme measures might be necessary.

In 1945, with their thousand-year empire falling around them and the Allies on their heels, the Nazis hide a sealed chest in the dark, forbidding waters of the Finstersee—a lake surrounded by the brooding peaks of the Austrian Alps. There it lies for 21 years, almost forgotten, until a British agent decides to raise it from the depths. The secrets he uncovers are far-reaching and lethal, and in Salzburg, Bill Mathison, a New York attorney on the trail of a missing colleague, finds himself drawn into the shadowy underworld of international espionage. Not knowing who to trust amidst the chaos, he is drawn to two beautiful women, one of whom will betray him.

Suspense

This author never lets you down , plenty of suspense. I didn’t want the story to end

Finally on audible!

Helen MacInness never disappoints. This has been a favorite novel of mine for at least 15 years. The performance was well done. Hopefully her brilliance will reach more readers as her books are available for free with the premium subscription.

Engaging story

Read Helen McInnes stories in my youth. The book captured my imagination and made me feel as if I was in Salzburg.
