Kathleen Ann Ann Peroff: War's Labyrinth, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Blurb

Washington, 1943.

Vera Taskinen serves in Roosevelt's White House, immersed in the pressures and demands of wartime leadership. When personal tragedy strikes, it reshapes her life in ways she carries long into the Cold War.

Her younger sister, Ana, a gifted cryptanalyst breaking secret codes, uncovers troubling patterns involving a British SOE officer whose wartime disappearance-and the classified files surrounding it-raises questions neither sister is prepared to face. As the Cold War takes hold, their once-easy bond strains under the weight of divided loyalties, unspoken truths, and the enduring cost of silence.

Spanning wartime Washington and the uneasy thaw of the postwar decades, War's Labyrinth explores the moral ambiguities of espionage, the fractures within families, and the quiet sacrifices made in the shadows of history. A story of two women bound by love and reshaped by the choices they make, it reveals the human cost behind the public events that defined an era.
