| Publisher Description: The Second World War raged mercilessly across land, sea and air and in pockets of underground resistance. Of the many heroic individuals portrayed in Soldier Flier Prisoner Partisan, two young Americans, an infantryman and a pilot, face hellish action fighting Nazis in all four arenas across North Africa and Europe. They find deep love with two battlefield nurses and endure the heartache of separation without contact. This book is an unsparing look at WWII that puts you in the grip of relentless warfare. You will feel the torment of combat, the misery of capture, and the riveting suspense of terrifying midnight guerilla incursions as the Americans join with partisans of mixed nationalities to battle the Gestapo and SS, while rescuing escapees from certain death. You will experience heroic battles in campaigns like Operation Torch, Monte Cassino, The Winter Line, Anzio and the Battle of the Bulge. You will go on hazardous and deadly bomb runs over Romania, Poland, and Germany, undergo rescue at sea after ditching, and learn about the life-or-death danger of fighting the Nazis with the resistance. "I favor novels with narrative drive. The book moves forward with terrific pace." -Forbes Robertson, Financial and Business Consultant, Niles, IL. The Americans and partisans go on a deep mission to attempt the recovery of priceless artwork stolen by the Nazis. In another episode, they discover two death camp escapees pursued by the SS and Gestapo. And later, they meet a beautiful British doctor and her gifted child hidden by nuns in a convent. The Americans and Polish partisans defend their hideout from vicious SS assaults. While undergoing incessant trial by fire on perilous missions, the solider and pilot and the combat nurses they love suffer the agony of uncertainty and fear of loss. You will share other love affairs, some fleeting, others tragic. Soldier Flier Prisoner Partisan: Missing in action and Presumed Dead is an epic novel of passion, betrayal, friendship, murder, capture, imprisonment and redemption. "Their guts and heroism unfolds in an exciting and enthralling way." Connie A. Michell, BSN/RN, Warren, PA |
