Produktbeschreibung

A gripping tale of death, tragedy, survival, courage, love and resilience as we follow 3 lives struggling to escape death in the last year of W.W.-II while the Third Reich is pummeled into ruins. Against the backdrop of post-war Germany Joseph and his daughter Gabrielle emerge from peace-time starvation, his recovery from death defying wounds, 3 years as a P.O.W., while falling in love with Erika who must overcome rape and a bestial Nazi brother's past before she can defeat self-loathing and lack of permission in order to thrive. Through risk and chance it is a story of 3 good people trapped in the evil of Fascist Germany attempting to shed the stain of Nazism. The indomitable will of Joseph, Immigration, the courage of Erika and the elfin innocence of Gabrielle highlight a tale that transcends 3 lives and encompasses the challenges we all face to defeat the dark side of humanity and find love and compassion in order to nurture our talents and find our true selves.

Autorenporträt

I live with my wife in Coto de Caza, California where we raised two, now, young adult children. I am a practicing psychotherapist and former Clinical Faculty member of the Department of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, University of California-Irvine, where I have been fortunate to gain insight regarding the "human condition", which has led me to fulfill the burning desire to write my first novel, Killing Ground. I am currently writing a second novel.
