Produktinformationen zu „Shadow War in Crete (PDF)“
Shadow War in Crete begins in a maternity ward in New Jersey, where Amalia, a young woman of Greek parentage, is awakening from anesthetic after giving birth to a child that was stillborn – or so she is told. When she lear4ns that her husband, a young German doctor, has disappeared as well, she nearly loses her sanity. To Regain her equilibrium, she decides to return to Crete to live with her mother and grandparents in the village of Agia Pelayla.
The year is 1939, and Amalia’s quest for inner peace soon becomes a struggle for survival as Greece is engulfed in World War II. Amalia’s story becomes entwined with intelligence agents and the guerilla “shadow warriors” – the Greeks, British and Anzacs who hid in mountain caves, descending at night to wreak havoc on the Nazis who occupied Crete for four years.
This is a wonderfully suspenseful novel that plunges the reader into another world and time. With hairbreadth escapes and poignant scenes of heroism, this novel is a page-turner from beginning to end.
