Shadows in the War (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798332685224)

Spell-Binding Historical Fiction Based on Actual Events

The #1 author, W. Hobbs, has done it again, marrying fact and fiction into a lively and entertaining expose on how the Allies defeated Nazi Germany.

Alexandru Mironescu's home in Eastern Europe was destroyed by the Nazis on their blitzkrieg across the continent. This loss doesn't make the twenty-three hundred-year-old vampire happy. He partners with the Americans and English to defeat the dreaded Hun rampaging across the continent. His new friends take full advantage of what skills and abilities their new ally offers. They send him on missions to recover a scientist. He is sent to a prison to scan the mind of a captured traitor. Alex discovers Martin Bormann's movement of wealth out of Germany to locations around the world. The vampire decides he could use gold more than Germans and steals a bit here and there. He also confiscates all the gold the Japanese hid in the Philippines.

Alex's new partners disagree with his reports from the front-line fighting. At several points, his handlers request that he kill Hitler. His reply is that the war may be prolonged, and he asks why they would want such a change when they appear to be winning. The generals assigned to liaison with him during his missions clearly disagree with his assessment.

As the war draws to a close, Alex moves his household from Berlin to Bonn and assists with reconstructing its infrastructure. Working with English occupation forces, the vampire restarts schools, medical care, public utilities, a newspaper, and a town trash dump. His efforts make life easier for women, children, and old men living in Bonn.

What does Alex do with all the gold he took? How does he dispense his own brand of justice? Where does he obtain all his supplies, provisions, and materials for reconstruction? These questions and more are answered in Shadows in the War, available in paperback and ebook exclusively from Amazon.
