About this ebook
Uno de los eventos más importantes en la historia de la aviación es aún desconocido por muchos, debido al encubrimiento de los países que lo protagonizaron, los Estados Unidos y la Unión Soviética. Ocurrió durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial y la Guerra Fría que le siguió, y tuvo serias consecuencias sobre la política internacional.
Caído del cielo recrea cómo el dictador de la Unión Soviética, Joseph Stalin, hizo una copia exacta del B-29 norteamericano —bombardero estratégico superpesado de largo alcance— y lo convirtió en el TU-4 soviético. Es un relato lleno de acción e intriga, donde destacan figuras de la más alta jerarquía de la época, matizado por una compleja historia de amor entre los protagonistas.
El B-29 reunía todas las características que hicieron posible el lanzamiento de las bombas atómicas que destruyeron las ciudades japonesas de Hiroshima y Nagasaki en 1945. Ese evento fue catalogado como un recurso de intimidación contra los soviéticos. Ante esa nueva amenaza, Stalin estaba dispuesto a hacer lo necesario para apoderarse de la novel tecnología del asombroso avión norteamericano. Y tal como narra Caído del cielo, finalmente lo logró.
