In the first book of the Jim Colling Adventure Series, Private Jim Colling finds that the post-War German occupation affords opportunities for significant financial gain to a resourceful American soldier with the ability to speak the local language. When Elizabeth Hamilton, a beautiful American civilian, enlists his aid in the rescue of one of her relatives from Soviet-controlled Poland, Colling reluctantly agrees. What was supposed to be a simple two-week excursion turns out to be a harrowing month-long journey of escape across an Eastern Europe that is devastated by War during which Colling’s courage and initiative are tested to the highest degree. When he learns about Elizabeth’s death under mysterious circumstances, Colling realizes that he must embark on a rescue mission of his own behind the Iron Curtain. Download this FREE e-Book today!
