Roger L. Conlee je renomovaný autor, ktorý sa ponoril do histórie a napätia, aby vytvoril pútavé príbehy. Jeho romány často skúmajú zložité motivácie postáv, ako napríklad novinár, ktorý riskuje všetko v nacistickom Nemecku, alebo muž, ktorý sa zaoberá vojnou, špionážou a cestovaním v čase. Conleeho štýl, obohatený o jeho dlhoročné skúsenosti v žurnalistike, prináša do jeho fikcie svieži a autentický pohľad. Píše o minulosti, ktorá odráža súčasnosť, a vtiahne čitateľov do napínavých dejových línií.
In 1953, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill vanishes and Whitehall goes into panic. Has the old lion, now 79 years old, been kidnapped? Murdered? In Roger Conlee's ninth historical novel, Jake Weaver and his daughter Ilse head for Berlin to penetrate the Iron Curtain and unravel the mystery--if they can.
Set in the early 1950s, the novel's double plot describes events in Los Angeles following the death of newspaper publisher William Randolph Hearst; and early events in the Korean War. The two-pronged plot involves two long-time friends, an ace reporter and a young marine officer who become enmeshed in harrowing and perhaps disillusioning events.
In the alps of Germany and Austria, legend has it that the souls of the dead ride the strange, unseasonable wind known as the Foehn. In SOULS ON THE WIND, readers ride that mysterious zephyr from Vienna to California and, just possibly, into one of the bloodiest battles of the American Civil War. All because of a stolen crown jewel that may have supernatural qualities. SOULS ON THE WIND is psychic-thriller, love story, ghost story, and science fiction all rolled up in one.
