Why did the Hindenburg go up in flames? Was it an accident, or was it sabatoge? This question has certainly been discussed and debated in earlier works, both fiction and non-fiction. BUT, author Max Allan Collins treats it as a secondary issue in his book âThe Hindenburg Murdersâ. The main issue â who killed the undercover German secret police agent who was on board the Hindenburg at the launch, but who hadn't been seen after the first evening and appears may have been thrown overboard?
Mr. Collins chose author Leslie Charters as his protagonist. The mystery writer best known for his âSaintâ creation had flown on the Hindenburg and certainly had some background in mysteries. As one might expect, much of the book centers on the politics of the age â we are, after all, on a Nazi airship flying over Europe towards a landing in America. The author also provides us with several interesting characters among passengers and crew to learn about, and perhaps to suspect ⦠and, of course, we all know it is a matter of history what will happen when the zeppelin reaches New Jersey! Will this incident be connected to the murder (or rather, murders by that point â hey, it's in the title, this isn't exactly a spoiler!), or will it be an unrelated event that simply provides a time limit on the investigation?
I've now read â or rather, listened to, as I've been privileged to enjoy the audio version of the books â 3 of the books in this 6 book series, and have found myself enjoying each. The concept of a murder mystery tied to a historic event â a well researched historic event â provides a unique backdrop to the mystery genre.
RATING: 5 stars. The book kept my attention throughout, and successfully tied historic events to fictitious ones.
