The Spy from Palestine

It's 1947 in British-controlled Palestine. Award-winning foreign correspondent, Charly Lawrence, and her lover, ex-Churchill bodyguard and spy, Jonas Shaw, arrive in the violent Promised Land. Their mission from her editor: track down a survivor of an infamous WWII German slaughter and write her heroic story. This exclusive will hopefully rescue Charly's struggling newspaper. Little do they realize they have landed in a heap of danger.

Steve earned a B. A. Degree from the University of Texas in Austin, majoring in political science and minoring in history. Afterwards he passed his stock broker's exam and worked for a time at a brokerage house before returning to school. Upon getting his legal assistant certification from UCLA, he worked at a law firm in Los Angeles. Successful stock market investments allowed him to retire early and to pursue two dreams, writing and foreign travel, and he has since traveled extensively and frequently to Europe. He speaks some French, a little less Italian, and four words in German and hopes to expand his fluency in all three languages.

He enjoys the cosmopolitan bustle, sidewalk cafes, the museums of Berlin, Rome, Vienna, London, Budapest, and Paris. Many of these capitals find their way into his stories of intrigue..."Murder Without Pity" (Paris), "The Killing Ploy" (London, Berlin, Paris, and Lugano) and the soon-to-be-released "Darkness and Blood" (London and Paris) and "Winston Churchill's Renegade Spy" (London and Zurich). He's also researching for a fifth novel, this one to be set in 1946 Berlin.
