Palette Knife: A Novel of Love, Intrigue, and Nazi Terror
My new historical novel--set in 1937 Berlin--has just been released on Kindle and Amazon paperback with five-star reviews. Max Bauer, Expressionist painter and war hero, with his half-Jewish physician wife Frieda--take on the Third Reich and a sadistic yet refined Gestapo henchman.
Read about the modern imagination colliding with Nazi Terror, and Max's struggle to save his art--then far more--wrestling with his own inner conviction to embrace pacifism even against overwhelming evil. Meanwhile, Frieda fights to save her medical practice.

Paranormal here is used in the broadest sense as something beyond the normal sensory experience, which is strange--whether contemporary or historical. I aim to entertain with these books. Do I?
