About this ebook

In the ruins of a fallen Reich, survival is the only law. Johan Kuhn, the son of a high-ranking SS officer, is thrust into the freezing, visceral nightmare of the East Prussian forests. Alongside his sister, he flees the encroaching Soviet tide, finding himself the de facto leader of a desperate band of orphans and disenfranchised soldiers-men left behind by a war that has already moved on.


Amidst the ruins of a broken world, Johan finds an unexpected light: Mila, a beautiful survivor whose spirit matches his own. But in a landscape defined by starvation and silver-tongued betrayal, love is a dangerous luxury.


Their journey from the dark, haunted woods to the rebuilt streets of West Germany is only the beginning. In the frantic vacuum of the post-war era, Johan discovers that the skills used to evade the Red Army are perfectly suited for a new kind of battle. Enticed by the lucrative, high-stakes underworld of international smuggling, he must decide how much of his soul he is willing to trade for a future.


In a world of new intrigues and old ghosts, Johan's climb to fortune may lead to the ultimate sanctuary-or his absolute destruction.
