About the author

LD Towers travels the world like a rootless vagabond! A military historian, she searches out places of conflict to find a deeper insight to the things she writes about. Presently enjoying the warm weather and azure seas of Central America, she has lived all over Western Europe, including 5.5 years in the incomparable Berlin.

Primarily working in Historical and Military Fiction, LD sometimes sneaks in the odd Dystopian or Modern Thriller piece. Also look for a series of novellas about the despicable yet intriguing Meinrad von Steinberg from the Riesa Series, coming in fall 2015.

And... finally... The sequel to Teufel, New Austrian Order, will also be out in fall 2015

[Birdie De La Vega · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book is huge. It's four months of time and it's like an extravaganza! So much going on! LD's books are pretty busy! But you are there. Germany in the 1930s.
