The charming Austrian village of Grimmendorf may look to tourists like the setting of a scene from The Sound of Music. But when Rosi Oberlechner, owner, cook, and waitress of the village inn, teams up with Toni Aschenbrenner to investigate four mysterious deaths, she and the old village cop start on a journey that will end with the discovery of dark secrets kept hidden for nearly a century.<\/p>

An atmospheric, eerie, and twisty rural mystery in an idyllic setting about grief, sin, and redemption, Forget Me Not explores the hurt and destruction caused by prejudice and vengeance.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\t

Rothaide couldn\u2019t have known it. But the former slave set the world on the path of eternal chaos the moment she reached for the babe next to his dead mother on the killing fields of Carthage. Because Jamal was not meant to live, any of his deeds could rewrite the past, upend the future, and throw the world into chaos. Only the man who shares his soul stands in his way. But will Luther, a New Jersey history teacher who cannot even manage his own life, be strong enough to impose his will on the great 8th-century Muslim warrior Jamal will grow into? And will he recognize the moment when he needs to act?<\/p>

The Sword and the Prophecy is a historical-contemporary fantasy that follows the twists and turns in the lives of two men who couldn\u2019t be more different. Until the moment when they \u2014 and their times \u2014 become one.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

George Jahn is preparing two novels for traditional publication.  Blue Blossom for a Blood Deed<\/i> is a twisty alpine mystery. The sword the word and the witness<\/i> is a dual-timeline fantasy. He comes to fiction writing as an award-winning former international correspondent and bureau chief for The Associated Press.<\/p>\n

He was on the Berlin Wall the night it fell, in Belgrade during the NATO bombardment of the Serbian capital, on the front lines of the wars in Bosnia and Kosovo, on a US aircraft carrier for the American invasion of Iraq that toppled Saddam Hussein, and part of the forward editing team shaping the coverage of the US invasion of Afghanistan.<\/p>\n

After reporting on wars and revolutions from five of the seven continents, he now has opted for more peaceful pursuits. Besides his fiction writing, Jahn is Senior Editor of European Voices, a quarterly magazine focused on Europe’s successes and challenges. He also writes on opera from homes in Vienna, Budapest, and Tavira, Portugal.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
