A Bit Too Dark…

“The suffering and assault on the young and Innocent Sofie was too much to bear. Overall a bit to dark for me, making for an unpleasant read.”

AMAZON REVIEWER 3 of 5 Stars

This 3-star review for our latest book in the German-Texan series told me that we are successful in staying true to history.

Beware! A New Fatherland: Peace Treaties and Shattered Hopes is a dark read.
