🔥 This book grabbed me by the collar and refused to let go. A Cry for Vengeance is like a history class that got hopped up on espresso and decided to throw punches. We’ve got Nazis hiding in plain sight, spies playing both sides, and a professor who gets way more than he bargained for. It’s twisty, dangerous, and totally addictive. I tore through it in a couple sittings because I HAD to know who was going to make it out alive. If you like your thrillers with brains, bullets, and a moral gut-punch, this is it. 💣📚

I want to thank NetGalley for this amazing ARC. I enjoyed this book. It was well written and being Jewish it hit home with me. The hardships that Jews faced during the holocaust were tragic but to think that so many lives were lost due to such hatred is appalling. This book is informative and is a great read for all. I suggest this read to a lot of misinformed youth in today’s society with the issues that Jews are facing today in society.

A deathbed confession from a former Nazi officer (living a secret life in America) detailing his participation in the atrocities during the Holocaust sets the wheels in motion for the action in this interesting novel. An organization known as Jews for Justice has been searching for any of these Germans in both the United States and South America for years in an attempt to kill them all. The recipient of the confession becomes entangled with a young author who becomes involved in an investigation and interviews several Holocaust survivors in an attempt to write about their experiences so that the world will never forget. The book is easy to read although a number of the stories are very emotional and give the reader pause. The characters are memorable and well written. This book is recommended for all who might be interested in learning more about this period in our history and, to this reader, had a somewhat surprising ending. I thank NetGalley and Rogue Phoenix Press for the opportunity to read and review this book prior to publication.

This was an interesting story, but the execution was a bit lacking. You know when you’re about ten and you write an action packed story with JUST the action? This had those vibes. Short scenes, bare bones description and just the dialogue - almost like a script. No omniscient third person narrator, no getting to know any characters as they all just sounded the same. An ambitious storyline of former Nazis hiding in America, being hunted down by a rogue group of assassins, while also being protected by the FBI because them being Nazis player second fiddle to them being anti communism.
The survivors tales were an interesting addition but there was no footnotes at the end to say whether they were true accounts, based in fact or entirely fictional.
This would actually work well as a film or a radio play! But as a book it’s just not a satisfying read to be honest. I received a copy of this through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

A terrific story which captures so much of what happened to Jews and other victims of the Holocaust. It could, therefore, have been a lot longer but the author has distilled key messages which will inform and engage a new generation of readers. The ending was deeply moving and, while tragic, also kind of satisfying as the author did not shy away from a controversial decision by the male protagonist,
