Surrender on a Forgotten Isle

In the turbulent final days of World War II, the Allies sense victory. But for two operatives in the newly formed civilian intelligence service, surviving the war is anything but certain. Mark "Russ" Russell has built a strong reputation with the OSS, and his career is thriving. Unfortunately, his personal life is in shambles. Emotional exhaustion led him to end things with his longtime love Rhonda Childress, and the loss of his fiancée, Piper, has left him devastated. When he's assigned a critical North Africa mission for President Roosevelt, he's grateful for the distraction. Meanwhile Rhonda languishes in OSS bureaucratic purgatory as a liaison in the Russian embassy in Washington, D.C. She longs to return to Switzerland to complete her mission with Lukas Hartung, an anti-Nazi conspirator. She must also end her romantic entanglement with him. When Hitler survives an attempt on his life, Rhonda, Lukas, and Russ find themselves in a daring rescue behind enemy lines. After a brief but memorable mission to the Russian Front during the Battle of Kursk, Rhonda is sent undercover to the Channel Islands to report on Reich war criminals defecting to South America. Russ joins the Allied commission for the Nazi surrender, held on the Channel Islands, as a witness to the end of the war's death and destruction—and to look for Rhonda. Surrender on a Forgotten Isle is a complex and engrossing tale of espionage, suspense, survival, and romance, where the fight against evil is also a fight for love.
