About the Book
Doris Nollmann’s father was a highly decorated Intelligence Agent who had worked the Eastern Front until Germany’s humiliating defeat at Stalingrad. Battle worn and disgraced, Captain Klaus Nollmann is relegated to guarding a German concentration camp. His family, nine-year old Doris, eleven-year old Klaus Jr. and the Captain’s wife Luise, are put to work feeding slop to the camp’s Jewish inmates and listening for subversive activity. Doris overhears a plot among the slave laborers to escape and tells her father. The plotters and forty others are executed by the S.S. Doris commences to have lifelong feelings of guilt.
The head of all Nazi Intelligence, Reinhardt Gehlen, makes a separate peace with America. He recruits the ravishingly beautiful Doris as an agent to track and trap a womanizing mole who sells U.S. Air Force Security Service intelligence to the Soviets. When she gets too close, the mole is suspected of murdering her. Some believe she has killed herself.
Double Agents, Doube/double Agents, Innocent Romance, Illicit Romance, Unrequited Romance, Anti Semitism, G.I. Lifestyle, American Patriotism, KGB intrigue, and Nuremberg Trials all combine for an explosive read.
