Monika and Arno spend a blissful weekend in a hotel, until Monika suddenly goes missing. There's no explanation and no warning. Neither her family or friends have any idea where she is.
Only Arno can piece the mystery together. Except that he has his own problems too: a Nazi past he would rather leave behind. And now his past is catching up with him.
Arno is bribed by the secret police and recruited into spying on his old Nazi masters. Monika and Arno's fates are intimately connected, if only they can work out how.
Told from the intimate perspective of two young sweethearts caught between love and survival, Vanished in Berlin is an immersive and evocative suspense set in the seething brew of 1930s Germany. In a tale full of remarkable twists and unexpected turns, the question of whether the two sweethearts will ever see - or trust - each other again will have you turning page after page.
Vanished in Berlin is the second book in the Berlin Tales series and can be read as a stand-alone.

"This is an intriguing story with strong characters in Monika and Arno ... a Jewish girl and German boy in the 1930's. The author does a fantastic job taking you back to the times with his detailed and descriptive writing and perfectly painted scenes." ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? Goodreads reviewer
"What a wonderful read! Filled with historic references, espionage, intrigue and a bit of romance. Well-defined characters and background made me feel like I was walking the cobbled streets of Germany in the 1930's. A storyline that crossed the social and economic cultures between a German boy and Jewish girl warmed my heart. Thank you for sharing this wonderful read." ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? Amazon reviewer
