Publisher's Description
A German-speaking South African sportsman who competes in the 1936 Olympic Games in Berlin, remains in Germany after the Games to join the Luftwaffe, the German Air Force. He falls in love with his instructor's sister and marries her. During the Second World War, he serves as a pilot in bomber units and survives various near brushes, until he and his wife escape with his aircraft in July 1944 to neutral Turkey, due to his wife's indirect involvement with the assassination attempt on Hitler.
Endorsements (1)
“Scholtz certainly knows how to create credible and intriguing characters and plots. He recreates the world of a South African pilot who drifts into the Nazi war machine and who has to come to grips with his own fears, beliefs, and love for his wife, who is indirectly involved in the plot to assassinate Hitler. Thoroughly recommended!”
