Winter Duet (Echoes Rising Book 2)

In the midst of the chaos of 1944 Germany, a German physicist, Dr. Kristopher Lehrer, and his lover, Michel, a Resistance fighter, find themselves caught up in an Allied bombing campaign while trying to flee. Separated from Michel after discovering an injured RAF pilot in the Black Forest, and pursued by the SS for the information he carries, Kristopher is frantic to reunite with his lover, unaware that Michel has been recruited by the Allies for a rescue mission. The Gestapo is closing in, and time is running out. Kristopher is faced with the daunting task of deciding who to trust, as the dagger pointed at his back could be wielded by a friend.

This is the third edition of "Winter Duet," a story that has been re-edited and now uses UK spelling to reflect its setting. The first and second editions were released by another publishing house.

As the tension builds and the stakes rise, Kristopher must navigate a treacherous web of deceit and betrayal, unsure of whom he can trust. The Allies and the Gestapo are both closing in, and Kristopher's only hope of survival may lie in the hands of the very people he is fleeing from.

The story explores the themes of trust, loyalty, and the complexities of wartime, where the lines between friend and foe are often blurred. Kristopher's desperate search for Michel, and their struggle to survive, is a gripping and suspenseful tale that keeps the reader on the edge of their seat.

The author's note at the end of the story provides valuable context for the reader, highlighting the evolution of the work and the attention to detail in its presentation. This third edition of "Winter Duet" is a testament to the author's dedication to crafting a captivating and well-rounded narrative that both engages and immerses the reader in the tumultuous world of 1944 Germany.
