About the Book

1945. World War II is now in its sixth agonizing year. In Europe, the Allies are closing in on Hitler's horrific Third Reich, but victory remains elusive. In the Pacific, US forces are locked in a grinding island-by-island struggle against Imperial Japan.Summoned from the battlefields of Europe, veteran tactical analyst Eleanor Shaux finds herself unexpectedly thrust into the greatest secret of the war: the Manhattan Project. Agonizing decisions must be made about the dangerous new weapon that could end the war in both theaters in a single stroke. Eleanor-pulled apart by the moral ambiguities and nuances of war, worn down by the stress of living through years of incessant conflict, and shocked by personal disaster-struggles to survive.Meanwhile, even as victory beckons, the great alliance between Roosevelt, Churchill, and Stalin is in danger of unraveling, strained to the breaking point by rivalries and ambitions. No one doubts that Germany will lose the war in Europe, but who will win it?The future of the world hangs in the balance as the war reaches its shattering climax in a time of triumph and tragedy. Which fate awaits Eleanor?

Review :

"Triumph and Tragedy by John Rhodes is an ambitious and thought-provoking work of historical fiction that places readers at the crossroads of military strategy, scientific innovation, and deeply personal loss during the final months of World War II. . . . Rhodes demonstrates a clear command of historical detail. . . . A thoughtful and layered novel that lives up to its title. It captures both the promise of victory and the high cost that accompanies it." -Manhattan Book Review

"Rhodes surveys the complexity of World War II in this sixth Breaking Point series installment, following Dangers and Difficulties. . . . Coupled with Shaux's biting wit, it's an information-packed tour de force. . . . Readers-particularly fans of little-known WWII details-will be riveted. Insightful, educational WWII novel buoyed by a strong female lead." -BookLife Review

"[Readers] seeking a novel about World War II that delves deeper into the impact and vision of the atom bomb than most and uses the perspective of a capable, thinking woman as its vehicle of delivering these contemplative moments will relish how Triumph and Tragedy brings history to life with emotional and philosophical reflection." -Midwest Book Review
