The Thirty-seventh Parallel

About the Book

The Thirty-seventh Parallel is a historical-based work of fiction, centering around a second planned North Korean invasion of South Korea, nine years following the signing of the Armistice in July 1953. It is still just a good old fashioned tale of intrigue, deception, double agents, and edge-of-your seat suspense. If you enjoy a good spy story, you’ll love The Thirty-seventh Parallel
