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.
##真人真事改编,经历传奇到不可思议。上午刚刚嘲讽书里德国将军单纯,谍战小儿科,晚上看完就打脸,主角和将军永远分别前最后一句话反转了整个故事,唏嘘不已
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##整体还可以 剧情算吸引人读下去 但是很多地方简直太抓马了吧 主角简直是开挂好运气人生 好多桥段像作者天马行空想象出来的一样 不敢相信是纪实文学 但作为认真读完的第一本英文小说 值得纪念.... 无论喜欢与否,有机会领略另一个文化、另一段陌生的历史,是读书带来的毋庸置疑的好处之一。 浪漫(尤其是男人,调情是社交礼节)、文艺、热爱美食、懒散……是我们对如今的意大利的印象,而“热爱投降”、“坑队友”“有效牵制德军”……则是我们对二战时期的意大利的印象。 ...
