About the Book
Professor of Literature Reginald Morton Smith has arrived on a sabbatical to take possession of Penrose Vila in Auckland. It is not long however before the life of the deceased former owner Mary Pointon, through her diaries and letters, is involving the Professor in an intriguing mystery, as he struggles to pursue his literary career. Meet a host of characters including the Russian General Sergei Andropovich, the Jewish antique dealer Solomon Oliver, Ladyboy Dawn and Clark Kennedy. Also the children Jimmy Watson and Jane Cartwright, along with Samantha Klaus and Prince Herman of Saxony, all entangled in the lives of our young lovers Thomas Youngfellow and Kate Debrie. Travel to America, Russia and Europe as we try to trace Rebecca and the real successor to Adolf Hitler, a descendant of Heir Dernitz. This is a literary fantasia which creates its own world of dreams and illusions, but one which never quite breaks free from the harsh realities that engender it.
