Operation Napoleon by Arnaldur Indridason

This was a really good book!  What does a German plane painted in allied colors carrying Germans and Americans reveal about WW2? Back in 1945 just prior to the end of WW2 this plane carrying seven high ranking military individuals from opposing sides comes into some horrendous weather over Iceland.  Due to massive icing the plane just can't make it and crashes into a glacier.  Fifty plus years later we come into the krux of the story as only a handful of American military know what damning cargo was aboard that downed craft.  An all out mission to recover this plane is launched and nothing will stand in the way of recovery. 

This story has it all! Intrigue, plot, conspiracy theories, "good guys" and "bad guys".  This book would make a great movie!  Be ready for some thought provoking possibilities about government cover-ups.
