Mark T. Sullivan (b. 1958) is an author of thrillers. Born in a Boston suburb, he joined the Peace Corp after college, traveling to West Africa to live with a tribe of Saharan nomads. Upon returning to the United States, he took a job at Reuters, beginning a decade-long career in journalism that would eventually lead to a job as an investigative reporter for the San Diego Tribune.
Sullivan spent the winter of 1990 living with a group of skiers in Utah and Wyoming, and used the experience as the foundation for his first novel, The Fall Line (1994). In 1995 he published Hard News, a thriller based on his work as a reporter, and a year later he released The Purification Ceremony, which won the WH Smith Award for Best New Talent. His most recent work is Private Games (2012), which he co-authored with James Patterson. Sullivan lives with his family in Montana, where he skis, hunts, and practices martial arts.
Based on the true story of a forgotten hero, Beneath a Scarlet Sky is the triumphant, epic tale of one young man’s incredible courage and resilience during one of history’s darkest hours.
Pino Lella wants nothing to do with the war or the Nazis. He’s a normal Italian teenager—obsessed with music, food, and girls—but his days of innocence are numbered. When his family home in Milan is destroyed by Allied bombs, Pino joins an underground railroad helping Jews escape over the Alps, and falls for Anna, a beautiful widow six years his senior.
In an attempt to protect him, Pino’s parents force him to enlist as a German soldier—a move they think will keep him out of combat. But after Pino is injured, he is recruited at the tender age of eighteen to become the personal driver for Adolf Hitler’s left hand in Italy, General Hans Leyers, one of the Third Reich’s most mysterious and powerful commanders.
Now, with the opportunity to spy for the Allies inside the German High Command, Pino endures the horrors of the war and the Nazi occupation by fighting in secret, his courage bolstered by his love for Anna and for the life he dreams they will one day share.
Fans of All the Light We Cannot See, The Nightingale, and Unbroken will enjoy this riveting saga of history, suspense, and love.
有关战争类的书籍,包括小说和纪实文学,我都很少接触。而谈及二战的欧洲战场,零星地被一些历史名词填充,诺曼底登陆、阿道夫·希特勒、敦刻尔克、犹太人、奥斯维辛集中营······简而言之,都是沉重的过去,定式化的二战印象。二战时期的意大利在干什么?只知道墨索里尼...
评分本来看完豆瓣简介对这本书是很期待的。看完整本之后觉得前言可能是写的最好的部分了。故事的设定非常有意思,是很多导演都乐于表现的主题,大时代背景下小人物的命运。有颠沛流离,有生死一线,也有人文的关怀,道德的困境,彼此深爱的人等多种爆款元素,随便哪个写好都够了。...
各种爬山。。。。
评分别的没啥说的 为啥英文小说就他娘非得英文评价 跟写微博似的两三行 了不得了
评分前后写的比较好,中间Pino做间谍的部分着墨很少,他究竟贡献了什么了不起的情报?为什么拿到手提箱钥匙之后一直没有打开?Pino的个性倒一直挺统一的,只能在背后搞反动,当面起冲突时总是懦弱。General Leyer究竟是什么身份,为什么会知道Pino代号呢?可能这就是纪实文学吧。

评分很棒的故事,语言上选词也讲究,再艰难的时局,也要演奏着音乐唱着歌,心里怀有希望。
