Description

Germany in 1952, recovering from a devastating war, attempting to put the pieces back together again, literally and figuratively, must endure yet one more prying eye, one more inquisitive 'tourist.' Beth Warren, an unconventional military wife, lands right in the middle of one of the three "Hitler towns," but the other two have been bombed to rubble. Only Landsberg, in picturesque Bavaria, in southern Germany, is still intact, still looks like a fairy-tale town, cobblestones and all. But Beth does not settle for surface appearances. She is soon peeling back the protective layer of medieval charm to the sometimes unsavory truths hidden beneath the fairy-tale facade. The town, the war, the U.S. military, her own marriage - nothing escapes her inquisitive nature.
Beth's quest, to find the truth, will discomfit the U.S. Air Force, introduce the reader to survivors and perpetrators, heroes and haters, and endanger her own fledgling marriage.
