Stalingrad in 1942 is a city in ruins, its Russian defenders fighting to the last man to repel the invading German army.

The battle is a much psychological as military, and to counter the threat the Nazi command bring to the city their own top marksman, Heinz Thorvald. His skill is legendary, his accuracy astonishing. His mission is simple: to identify and kill Zaitsev. Based on the true story, War of the Rats is a brilliantly compelling thriller.
