Songs in the Night Books

A German pastor, Josef Schumacher joins the resistance movement against Hitler, hoping to save his young parishoners from the evils of Nazism. Original.

Konrad Reichmann, an outstanding product of Hitler’s youth movement, becomes disillusioned as the reality of the Russian front bears no resemblance to the "glory" of the Third Reich. Even lower than his unit’s morale are supplies and fuel as Russia’s winter is unleashed against them. When the slaughter of innocents opens his eyes to the true nature of the Reich, Konrad embarks upon a bold and dangerous plan to change the course of history. Can he avoid the trap set for him?

Songs in the Night book 3, the sequel to the award-winning His Watchful Eye. Following World War II, little has changed in Berlin. The Swastika has been replaced by the Hammer and Sickle, the soldiers by secret police, but a life of daily oppression and fear remains. Inspired by the memory of Joseph Schumacher, his widow forms a contentious coalition to sneak six disabled young people over the Berlin Wall, out of Communist East Germany, and on to either freedom or capture.
