Produktbeschreibung

What if the past never really let go?

In this haunting and daring collection, K. E. Adamus weaves stories where memory, guilt, and history collide with the present. From the chilling confessions of prisoners whose lives have been consumed by a single act, to the unspoken traumas of war, to encounters with strangers who might be spiesor ghostsFLASHBACKS captures moments when reality fractures and the truth hides in the shadows.

Three powerful tales anchor this volume:

• Joke A psychology intern discovers that reading life-sentence applications is far more terrifying than studying any textbook on psychopaths. But when he uncovers a prisoner's strange story about a "joke" gone wrong in East Germany, the line between truth and madness blursand a decision he makes could cost him more than his career.
• The War Secret A son confronts the father he never knew, a Vietnam veteran. What begins as a tense reunion becomes a deadly countdown, as assassins close in and family truths erupt with bullets and blood.
• The Holy Line A woman sipping coffee in a harbour café is told by a stranger that she once stole a secret Soviet report as a teenager. Is he a lunaticor is her past about to rewrite itself in dangerous ways?

Darkly psychological, sharply cinematic, and infused with irony, FLASHBACKS explores how small choices echo across decades, how history scars personal lives, and how memory itself can become both weapon and refuge.

For readers of psychological thrillers, literary suspense, and stories where political history meets intimate human fate, FLASHBACKS is an unforgettable journey through the hidden corridors of the past.
