“World War II is barely history when Christ Christopher, a young man from Missouri, responds to a Selective Service notice to register for a possible
draft. At the Registration Center he meets two army recruiters with an interesting pitch. The army has a need for young men who match their unusual
requirements.”

A fascinating look at the world of undercover G-men in the late 40s and 50s, Mr. Simpkin’s book follows Chris from recruitment to operative. Told in first-person, the reader gets an honest and deep look into the thoughts and fears and activities of this piece of history. The dialogue is sharp, the action is on-going. Ample descriptions abound.

Mr. Simpkin is scheduled for a book signing at All on the Same Page Bookstore
in September.
