About the Book

"From Whence They Fell," a paradox of love and war, is the first chapter of Zack's WW II trilogy. Zack Derream, an OSS agent secretly lands in Nazi occupied Holland and France, where he shares danger, betrayal, and eventually love with his fellow Dutch agent, Karlana Leyte. Zack believes that a fellow agent, Karl Zinger, is a Nazi double agent. After the war Zack returns to Amsterdam and forcibly takes Karl to prison. Zack and Karlana survive the war and experience twelve years of domestic contentment, until tragedy detours that union. The paradox of love and war is obvious in that those who share days of fear, torture, or death also find that during their darkest days to survive they share emotions that blend into moments of love and caring. The emotional power to move from war to love is compensation for Zack and Karlana to return "From Whence They Fell." "The Ultimate Human Evil - ODESSA" is the second chapter of Zack's trilogy. Zack Derream leaves his law practice and an empty home to serve as an agent for NET, Nazi Escapee Trackers, in Vienna, Austria. He discovers that Karl Zinger has escaped from prison and is a Nazi war criminal attached to ODESSA. Zack meets Lea Keis, a fellow agent, in Amsterdam. Amazingly, Lea was Karlana's friend when they previously worked as models at Karl Zinger's agency. After a change of direction, a mission to South America places Zack in a face-off with Karl Zinger who has escaped to Argentina and is a wanted Nazi war criminal. Zack's personal mission is to capture this former Nazi double agent who betrayed Zack and Karlana during WW II. "From the Sky - ODESSA" is the final chapter of Zack's trilogy. As an agent for NET he is committed to bringing Huff Hiner, a viciously evil Nazi war criminal, to the War Crimes Tribunal in Holland. NET headquarters in Vienna, Austria assigns Zack to South America where he encounters Huff Hiner, who was mentored in WW II by Karl Zinger at the Dachua Nazi prison. Zinger is the former WW II Nazi double agent who betrayed Zack during the war in Nazi occupied Holland and France. Consequently, Zack's Argentina assignment to capture Hiner presents an emotionally personal revenge to take this evil Nazi back to Den Hague to the War Crimes Tribunal. Hiner is an inbred evil person from his time in Hitler's Jugend youth program to becoming a Luftwaffe fighter pilot. His intent is to kill any and all Jews, but Huff faces his progression downward as a Nazi POW in the USA. In 1945 he mysteriously arrives in Oakley, Arkansas where he marries teenage Mary Lou Scott claiming that he is Ralph Reeger, an American Air Force Officer. This mystery man remains in Arkansas as a business owner for fifteen years. Strangely every two years a teenage girl is raped and murdered. Huff Hiner is caught but escapes to Argentina. NET contacts Zack Derream who leaves his NYC law practice to find, capture, and take Huff Hiner, aka Ralph Reeger, back to Arkansas and on to Den Hague, Netherlands as a Nazi War Criminal. It's been a long dangerous journey for Zack from WW II to post-war marriage, love, and tragedy which is replayed many times while working as a NET agent.
