Riddle of Berlin is the story of John C. Jaëgerman at a crossroad of middle age frustration in his career and marriage.

Del crafts resolution of the Riddle while reliving thrills of danger as he tastes new love with Carmen.

ABOUT AUTHOR CYM LOWELL
Cym Lowell is a novelist who loves to write international thrillers. In his stories, threats to world order are commonplace. The origin of the mayhem appears to be from sources that seem logical on their face. However, the reality is far different and more sinister. Governments of the world are impotent to actually protect their people.
Cym’s novels are full of colorful people, heroes and villains alike. As you turn the pages, the storylines come alive, twisting and turning in and around each other. You will find the threats are akin to world events in the papers and newscasts that you read. The characters could be any of us.
Cym Lowell has lived a lifetime in the world of international finance. As a tax lawyer, Cym is intimately involved in the operations and financing of global business. Cym crafts stories about endearing people caught-up in events that one would never dream possible.

Everytime I think I’ve found just about every book-reading site there is, I come across more! It is a fabulous way for me to learn about new books and authors out there. I’ve not hear of Cym Lowell, but the book sounds interesting, and I do enjoy thrillers. This is more action/adventure, not to mention set in the ’40s, but I think people will really enjoy His Edge by Wayne Harding. It’s about a WWII fighter pilot turned civilian test pilot (it’s semi-autobiographical) and his adventures in the high drama of the skies. Boy, are his close calls vividly described.
Ooo. I’m a big fan of pilot thrillers. Thanks for the heads up!
