Four novellas set at crucial periods in C20th German history
1936: WOMEN AT WAR
Against a backdrop of a Europe seemingly headed towards war, the daughters of
the Mitford and Midgley families indulge in enmities and manoeuvres of their
own, encountering HG Wells; von Ribbentrop; Goebbels; Hitler; Mosely and
Wallis Simpson on the way.
1946: STAR-CROSSED
Newly promoted by the US Army, Captain Sam Jacobs is already finding the
governance of the Germans in peacetime as challenging as ever was waging
war against them, yet, everything becomes even more complicated with the
appearance of the Baroness.
1961: LYING SKIES
Following the betrayals of George Blake, rookie MI6 officer, Ray Kinnell, is hastily
posted to Berlin to create a new network of agents but, before long, a great wall
is built that changes the game considerably. The first lesson along his learning-
curve is that, in the game of espionage, friends and enemies can be found in
surprising places.
1989+: CHILDREN OF THE WALL
The Kugler family’s escape attempt from East to West Berlin is only partially
successful, leaving father and son in the West; mother and daughter in the East.
Each facing difficulties, it is only after the fall of the Wall, that they can attempt
to re-unite the family.
