The Detonators

Set against the backdrop of World War I and an explosive act of sabotage in 1916, "The Detonators" chronicles the aftermath of the German attack on Black Tom Island, which devastated parts of New York City and exposed a vast network of enemy agents within America. Two decades later, three lawyers, including the determined John McCloy, embark on a mission to uncover the truth behind this historical crime and the negligence that allowed it to occur. Blending themes of espionage, justice, and personal sacrifice, the audiobook also weaves in the poignant love story of John and Ellen McCloy, offering a compelling lens on a pivotal moment in American history.
