CATALYST is an exciting WWII thriller inspired by true events; the Nazi plot to bomb NewYork City.

 In the waning months of World War II, the allied armies advance upon the crumbling German
 war machine like a    juggernaut. In a final desperate bid to save the Fatherland, a plan is
 conceived that could turn the tide of the war-the completion of an advanced jet-propelled 
 bomber capable of delivering a deadly payload to the shores of America.

 Captain Griff Avery of the OSS has just botched the defection of a prominent German 
 physicist, a man crucial to the  Nazi end game, letting him fall into the hands of the rogue SS
 General masterminding the plot. But Avery's troubles have only just begun: overwhelming 
 evidence points to the woman he loves as the German spy who foiled the defection.

 Now under suspicion himself, Avery sifts through the lies and deceit, uncovering the
 treacherous German operation. Against orders and on the run, Avery is forced to wage a
 secret war of his own, recruiting the crew of a B-17 Flying Fortress and a reckless group of flyboys and their P-51 Mustangs to help him hunt down the secret SS cell and prevent the slaughter-no matter what the cost.



 CATALYST by Paul Byers is a real page turner! Great action and suspense! The
 combat action is as real as it gets and flies right at you! The tale integrates the reality
 of WWII aerial combat and the suspense of a spy thriller with the technology that
 could have changed the outcome of the War. You’ll enjoy every minute!

Having finished reading this great book, I can honestly say I was amazed that Paul Byers was a first time author. I thoroughly enjoyed the story line and the detail with which he was able to describe the scenes. It was particularly absorbing to me, an ex USAF fighter pilot; especially the air battles. Well-done Paul; I await your next effort.                                                                                                                                                                     Carmine R.
