Blood and Honor: A Mother’s Heritage, A Daughter’s Revenge

War hysteria, spying, and blackmail smack up against the courage, ambition and pride of three generations of mid-western women for a fast paced tale of action, honor and family. 


Grete, a newspaper publisher in 1918, faces the violent, anti-German sentiment of World War I and, with lessons for today, publishes her paper in German in spite of an English-only law. 


Her daughter, Trude, reaches adulthood in World War II during increasing revelations of Hitler's atrocities in Europe. She rejects all things German and engages in counter espionage for the U.S. but entangles herself. 


Her daughter, Darian, becomes an investigative reporter and uncovers the rat line and the presence of Nazi war criminals in the U.S., but also learns a secret.
