Promises. Devotion. Deception. Betrayal.
It's 1966 in East Berlin, Germany. The Wall is reinforced with cinder blocks, barbed wire, tank traps, and second-generation guard towers to oversee what is known as the death strip. Its function successfully claims a steady stream of victims longing for freedom and willing to risk everything to escape the destruction known as the Deutsche Democratic Republic.
Ella Kühn now in her twenties, faithfully awaits the end of Stefan's ten-year military sentence, yearning for the moment they will finally be together. A mysterious disappearance, startling news from the West, and surprising betrayal wrench Ella's dedicated resolve in shocking directions. Her stubborn curiosity and devotion to those she loves pushes her to pursue answers in the face of doubt, danger, and even death.
In Deception, book 2 of the Berlin Butterfly series, Ella's search for light in an ever-growing darkness introduces her to new friends, perilous associations, and deadly exploits. Will Stefan's love and the belief that he will return be enough to keep Ella on the East side of the wall? Or does heartache and treachery push her to join the family and a life of freedom she longs for? Fans of German war fiction and historical romance will love this extraordinary twentieth-century political drama.
