Synopsis: Thousands of books, articles etc have been released on Nazis but still there is a passion about the subject. The Dancing Dodo entails the story of the remains of an aircraft which is discovered by some children and after this there becomes a danger of Bio Weapon. Completely hypothetical situation. Also the story is not well paced. Almost a hopeless novel. Dancing Dodo is set in the late 70's when many WWII vets were still young enough to be up to no good. This is a rather typical story of a Nazi plot that went wrong during the war. When an American plane is found crashed in a field in England, the Americans and Brits are called in for a joint investigation. But things start to go wrong, with people getting sick from a mysterious disease and the pricipal investigator being attached by mouldering corpses.The novel includes a romantic interlude for the hero and the classic climax at a deserted country manor house. While the answer isn't entirely obvious halfway through, the book isn't particularly suspenseful or well paced.
