Teaser Tuesday (17 August)

Teaser Tuesday again, hos- waitaminute, who'd he say he was? 

"Sind Sie Frau Druce?" A man's voice.
"Yes, I'm Peggy Druce. And who the devil are you?"
"Adolf Hitler here," the voice answered. 

p. 170, The War that Came Early: West and East.  Harry Turtledove.

  8. Interesting! I don't think that I have ever read any of Turtledove's alternate history books. My teaser is from Infinite Days by Rebecca Maizel. Happy reading!

  15. @Joy: Well, she...asked for it. ;) She's an American citizen trapped in Berlin after the war begins (but before the US enters it) and having difficulty getting an exit visa. So, she wrote a letter to Hitler asking him for his assistance.

    That was an awkward conversation.

Thank you for visiting! Because of some very clever spambots, I've had to start moderating comments more strictly, but they're approved throughout the day.
