by Justine Davis

Murder, corruption and a second chance at love... When his dog, Cutter, leads Brett Dunbar to a dead body during a routine property check, it's the detective's hardest case yet.

Seeing the heroic qualities she valued in her late husband reflected in Brett makes the protective wall around Sloan's heart crumble.

Operation Schlosser (Eves Krieg, Heldinnen der Special Operations Executive #2)

by Hannah Howe

Eves Krieg ist eine Reihe aus zwölf Novellen. Jedes Buch ist circa 20.000 Wörter lang und beinhaltet eine in sich abgeschlossene Geschichte. Der Preis wird für die gesamte Reihe auf ein Minimum gesetzt. Der Handlungsbogen von Eves Geschichte wird am Ende der Reihe beendet. „Ich habe gehört, dass Sie nach Frankreich zurückkehren möchten“, sagte der Mann hinter dem Mahagoni-Schreibtisch. „Das ist korrekt“, bestätigte ich. „Und Ihre Beweggründe?“, fragte er und glättete die Spitzen seines Schnurrbarts. „Ich will meinen Teil zu den Kriegsanstrengungen beitragen“, erklärte ich, „die Nazis besiegen und herausfinden, was mit meinem Ehemann geschehen ist.“ „Es wäre äußerst riskant“, warnte der ernst aussehende Mann, „vielleicht sogar gleichbedeutend mit Selbstmord, als Frau solch ein Unterfangen allein anzugehen. Wir hätten da aber eine Alternative.“ „Eine Alternative?“ Ich runzelte die Stirn. „Ja. Wir bringen Sie dorthin, als eine von unseren Leuten. Natürlich müssten Sie zuerst eine Ausbildung absolvieren. Eine harte Ausbildung. Eine geheime Ausbildung. Wenn Sie versagen, bedeutet das leider eine Weile im Kühler, womöglich, bis der Krieg vorüber ist.“ „Im Kühler?“ „Aber ich bin sicher, so weit wird es nicht kommen“, fuhr er fort, ohne meine Frage zu beachten. „Wann können Sie beginnen?“ Ich begann sofort. Und während meiner Ausbildung traf ich zwei Leute, die mein Leben radikal verändern würden: Guy Samson und Mimi Duchamp. Ich lüftete auch Geheimnisse über mich selbst, Fähigkeiten, die meine Vorstellungskraft überstiegen. Aber während die Ausbildung voranschritt, wurden auch die Situationen immer realer, bis zu dem Punkt, an dem ich töten musste, um nicht getötet zu werden.

„Eves Krieg“ ist eine Reihe aus zwölf Novellen. Jedes Buch ist circa 20.000 Wörter lang und beinhaltet eine in sich abgeschlossene Geschichte. Der Preis wird für die gesamte Reihe auf ein Minimum gesetzt. Der Handlungsbogen von Eves Geschichte wird am Ende der Reihe beendet. Marseille, Dezember 1942 „Wir stecken in der Klemme“, begann Vincent. „Die Gestapo hat einen britischen Agenten, Codename Zickzack, gefangen genommen. Sie sind wegen seiner falschen Papiere auf ihn aufmerksam geworden, aber sie haben seine wahre Identität noch nicht aufgedeckt. Aber das werden sie. Und er wird reden. Das tun sie alle irgendwann. Und wenn er redet, wird er Geheimnisse enthüllen, die die örtlichen Widerstandsnetzwerke, einschließlich unseres, zerstören werden. Aber es gibt einen Ausweg, über einen Wachmann. Er ist offen für Bestechungen. Wir möchten, dass du dich mit dem Wachmann triffst, ihn bestichst, Zickzack aus dem Gestapo-Gefängnis holst und ihn dann über den Bergpass nach Spanien bringst.“ „Warum ich?”, fragte ich. „Weil du geholfen hast, das Fluchtnetzwerk aufzubauen. Und du kennst die Bergpfade wie deine Westentasche. Außerdem bist du als Frau des respektierten Industriellen Michel Beringar vor jedem Verdacht gefeit.“ Ich sah Michel an. Der strenge Ausdruck auf seinem Gesicht verriet mir, dass er nicht glücklich war. War dies ein zu großes Risiko? Und was die Aussage betraf, dass ich vor jedem Verdacht gefeit war: Die Gestapo verfolgte mich und ließ mein Telefon abhören. Als Kind war ich von zu Hause weggelaufen. Als Teenager hatte ich die Welt bereist und mich irgendwie durchgeschlagen. Als Journalistin war ich Zeugin von Gräueltaten geworden, die im Namen des Faschismus begangen wurden. Als Mitglied der Widerstandsbewegung hatte ich der Angst ins Auge geblickt und sie überwunden. In den letzten 30 Jahren hatte ich mein Leben in vollen Zügen ausgekostet. Ich konnte es schaffen.
