Publisher's Synopsis
My parents lived in pre-war Europe under the threat of Hitler and the Nazi regime. As a soldier and counterintelligence agent, my father witnessed the death and devastation wrought by a tyrannical man and his collaborators. In 1956, my father had the unique opportunity to return to Germany at the invitation of the West German government, where his story came full circle. He was once again "eyes and ears" in a country whose people were rebuilding a new foundation of hope atop the ravages of a warped propaganda. This is not a novel. There is no building climax, nor a satisfactory resolution to that climax. Instead, it is a glimpse, through letters, into the lives of two people who happened to spend remarkable years, at a remarkable time, in a remarkable country that changed the world forever-World War II, the deadliest conflict in human history.
