The story takes place in the late 1950&#8217;s during the Cold War and the space race between the US and USSR. We start off with our main character, who has no memory of who he is and how he ended up in such a strange situation. Follett does an amazing job drawing out this character by having him rediscover his identity and the people in their life. The pacing in the book kept me intrigued throughout the story. The mystery of our main character amidst a critical rocket launch, creates a tension filled backdrop with elements of love and hatred, camaraderie and betrayal and ideological differences. I highly recommend Code to Zero for anyone wanting to read a great mystery thriller in the Cold War era.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.goodreads.com\/book\/show\/5052.Code_to_Zero\" style=\"border-radius:4px\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">View on Goodreads<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This thriller book was an exciting rocket ride right to the end.
