"Saboteur is a well-crafted historical thriller that successfully blends fact with fiction. I wholeheartedly rate this book 5 out of 5 stars." - Macreen Ouko OnlineBookClub.org
"A fine work of historical fiction, smartly conceived and elegantly executed. Absolutely compelling." - David Pitt in the Winnipeg Free Press. Follow him on X @bookfella.
On 6 December 1917, in the middle of WWI, the French ammunition ship, Mont Blanc, exploded in Halifax harbour, killing over 2,000 people. History records this catastrophe as the largest ever man-made explosion before Hiroshima.
What history does not mention is the account of Ben Stendt, a German-Canadian saboteur who in 1916 managed to blow up several ships delivering war supplies to England and France days after they sailed from the port of Halifax.
Nor does history mention the role of agents of the German government operating in New York, enlisting Stendt in their plot to blow up the Mont Blanc when it reaches Halifax.
Was the explosion an accident? Saboteur is the untold story of those events.
