The Californer/10252447

SAN DIEGO - Californer -- Independent publisher 32-32 North is pleased to announce the release of Martin Roy Hill's new WWII thriller, Codename: Parsifal.

In the waning days of WWII, an American commando team races to save the destiny of the world by finding the legendary Spear of Destiny before it can fall into Nazi or Russian hands.

The Spear of Destiny is said to be the Roman Legionnaire's lance that pierced Christ's body as he hung on the cross. Legend claims whomever possesses the spear will become a great conqueror. But if they lose it, they will lose everything—including their lives.
Shortly before WWII, Hitler stole the spear from a museum in Vienna. In the last weeks of the European war, he lost it. General George Patton orders an American OSS team to find the spear and recover it. Unknown to the Americans, both the Russians and the Germans have also sent commando teams to retrieve it.
