And - hurrah! Here's the Tower of the Blue Horses, now available as an Amazon e-kindle book.
The novel is based on the true story of the White Rose student resistance group. The group was centred round a brother and sister - Hans and Sophie Scholl - and a small number of their close friends. It operated in Munich in the early years of World War Two, under almost impossibly dangerous circumstances.
The novel follows Hans' growing disenchantment with Nazism, from his teenage days, when he was a proud member of the Hitler Youth, through his army service in France and Russia, up to his extraordinary acts of rebellion during the war. We see his personal side as well: his difficult relationship with his pacifist father; his clashes with the Nazi authorities, and the growing importance of his friendships with Alexander Schmorell, Christoph Probst and others in the White Rose - above all, with his sister Sophie.
It is intended for any reader, from teens onwards, who has an interest in history and has ever wondered how they might react in the kind of circumstances the White Rose faced.
It's available to download from Amazon - ridiculously cheaply - to any Kindle, or Kindle app.
