A View Across the Rooftops
by Suzanne Kelman
An epic,
heart-wrenching and gripping World War Two historical novel
‘Heart wrenching… I really
struggled to put this book down, particularly the end of the book which I sat
up until 2am reading and trying hard not to wake my husband with my crying!’
Goodreads Reviewer ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
1941, Nazi-occupied
Amsterdam. An unforgettable story of love, hope and betrayal, and a
testament to the courage of humanity in history’s darkest days.
As Nazis occupy his beloved
city, Professor Josef Held feels helpless. So, when he discovers his former
pupil Michael Blum is trying to escape the Gestapo, he offers Michael a place
to hide in his attic.
In the quiet gloom of the
secret room, Michael talks of his beautiful, fearless girlfriend, Elke. Michael
insists that not even the Nazis will come between them. But Elke is a
non-Jewish Dutch girl, and their relationship is strictly forbidden.
Josef sees the passionate
determination in his young friend’s eyes. Furious with the rules of the cruel
German soldiers and remembering his own heartbreak, Josef feels desperate to
give Michael and Elke’s love a chance. But then tragedy strikes, and Josef is
faced with an impossible choice.
In the dark days of war, with
danger and betrayal at every turn, no-one can be trusted. If Michael is to
survive and get back to the woman he loves, it will be down to Josef – to find
the hero inside himself and do whatever it takes to keep Michael alive.
Even if it means putting his
own life in mortal danger.
A heartbreakingly beautiful
story about courage against the odds, perfect for fans of The Tattooist of
Auschwitz, All The Light We Cannot See, and The Nightingale.

virus into a bioterror weapon that will destroy the Great Satan. Anne's fear is

FIVE WEEKS – by David P. Perlmutter
True Story: First I had a gun in my back in London and
then I was nearly left for dead in a Pennsylvania wood!
This is another true
story and this time set in London, Eastbourne, and America. I worked for an
Estate Agent in North London and I attend a party along with my friend Steve in
Islington. Then just after Steve disappears to the loo, two guys come into the
kitchen where we were and dragged me across the floor punching me in the face and
ripping my hair out.
A few months
later I'm threatened by the same guys from the party, BUT this time with a gun
in my back and told if I'm seen in the area again, they will have no hesitation
in using the gun.
So, after
resigning from my job, I was invited to spend Christmas in Eastbourne with my
girlfriend Jenny at her parents place. We decide to stay and move to Brighton
where I was offered a job as a tele-sales manager for an American portrait
company, but first must take a trip to Pennsylvania for a five-week training
course.
FIVE WEEKS is a
story of those weeks in America and where in a remote Pennsylvania woodland, I
was nearly left for dead by my cocaine addict boss and his brother!
Color of the Prism by Thomas J. Nichols
Drug Cartels
rule the Arizona border. One undercover agent infiltrates the unseemly world
and risks everything to destroy the violent kingpin. Will his family pay the
ultimate price?
“Color of the Prism,” a
contemporary novel is based on true events in the life of the author. This
realistic story reflects a blend of fact and fiction into a journey of
intrigue, love, betrayal, and tragedy in this police thriller on the
Arizona-Sonora border.
The story
follows Tucson Police undercover agent Antonio Castenada who spearheads an
investigation into the violent cartel of Reynaldo Guzman, a prominent
businessman and drug kingpin.
The complexity
of Castenada’s work is multiplied exponentially by the conflicts that challenge
his personal and professional life as opposed to the unseemly role he plays as
a cartel member. Alone in the netherworld of corruption, his decisions will
impact his family life forever as he scrambles to out-maneuver Guzman and his
hired assassin, Julian Espino Gatica.
“Color of the
Prism” and its non-traditional ending illuminate the true world of crime and
corruption unseen by most people.
Indeed, it is the last color of the prism.
