Sometimes the simplest of choices can have the most devastating of consequences.
Sometimes falling in love can be a curse.
Sometimes being the hard man is the hardest job.
Part of The Love and War Series, novels set during the 20th century's darkest years.
Hungary, 1949. Eva, George and Zoltan. Three people trying to live by the rules within a system that demands total obedience.
Eva, reeling from the tragedy of losing her baby, Anastasia, falls in love at a time when love is fraught with danger.
George, a rising star of Hungarian football, is told to throw a game. Faced with an impossible dilemma, George has to decide – to risk everything to fulfil his dream or, for the sake of his future, obey the rules.
Zoltan works for the secret police where having a heart is a sign of weakness. A torn man trying to suppress the good within him, his job takes him further and further from the things he values most.
Seven years later, in 1956, their destinies collide as Hungary erupts into revolution. Secrets can no longer be hidden as loyalties are pushed to the limit.
Set against the violent backdrop of suppression and revolution, Anastasia is a tale of people caught in the turmoil of history, where the choices you make determine your fate. And at the heart of the novel, the unseen presence of Anastasia.
Historical fiction with heart and drama.
