This book is part love story, part wartime thriller, part coming-of-age struggle, a compelling reminder that the human story is not over when a war ends.
"Upon reading the wartime letters of Katherine and Conrad Netting, I was thunderstruck. Theirs was a story unlike anything I had ever encountered before... His fate adds a poignancy and resonance to the larger account, and the astonishing 'after-story' brings it all to the present day." -- Andrew Carroll, editor of War Letters
Conrad John Netting IV, born one month after his pilot father's death after the D-Day invasion in World War II, heads his own certified public accounting firm in San Antonio, Texas.
