Description: The Stars My Destination by Alfred Bester Gollancz SF Masterworks #5; 1999 latest date given but this is the 13th printing since that initial 1999 publication which dates this around the 2010's; £7.99 price At the end of World War II a group of Nazi saboteurs stranded in America found refuge in Warlord's Hill,an estate in the remote and secluded New Jersey Pine Barrens. Led by Paul Bauer, a man consumed by the desire to avenge German's defeat, the fugitive saboteurs and their descendants have established an enclave meant to preserve the spirit of 1930's Nazism in pure form, training assassins to tear at the fabric of society. To further that cause, Bauer has planned a political career for his son, Lloyd. Now, to assure Lloyd's success in his run for the U.S. Senate, several people, who as children witnessed the goings-on at Warlord's Hill, must be eliminated. On a pretext, Bauer has hired investigative reporter Roy Hammil to help his son, inviting the journalist and his young wife, Terry, to stay at Warlord's Hill. Left on her own and curious, Terry discovers the eccentric nature of the enclave. All aspects of life there -- appliances, means of communication, entertainment -- duplicate those of a model village in prewar America. Subtly, unbeknownst to her, Terry's role changes from guest to pawn in Bauer's bizarre and deadly game. Polybagged. Shipping in a rigid mailer.
