Above Suspicion cover

In Above Suspicion, a young girl endures a terrifying ordeal in Nazi Germany, revealing the dark realities of oppression and the human spirit's resilience.

Set in the turbulent backdrop of Nazi Germany in 1939, Above Suspicion explores the harrowing experiences of a young girl caught in a web of intrigue and brutality. The narrative opens with Von Aschenhausen, a menacing figure, perched on the edge of a large desk. His piercing gaze is fixed on a man who looms over the girl, bound to a chair, as tension fills the air. The chilling dialogue reveals the depths of desperation and cruelty, as Von Aschenhausen demands answers, showcasing the lengths to which he will go to extract information. The girl, feeling the weight of her dire situation, is left to grapple with her fear and helplessness.

As the story unfolds, readers are drawn into a world where power and manipulation reign supreme. The girl’s struggle against her restraints symbolizes the larger fight against oppression and tyranny. The author masterfully conveys the emotional turmoil of the characters, allowing readers to empathize with their plight. The atmosphere is thick with suspense, as the threat of violence looms ever closer, and the girl’s fate hangs in the balance.

Above Suspicion is not just a tale of survival; it is a poignant reflection on the human spirit's resilience in the face of overwhelming odds. The gripping narrative and well-drawn characters invite readers to ponder the moral complexities of loyalty, betrayal, and the pursuit of truth in dark times.

"Helen MacInnes can hang her cloak and dagger right up there with Eric Ambler and Graham Greene" (Newsweek) "Hide and seek with death - in the shadow of terror. As clearly stamped as a Hitchcock thriller" (New York Times)"
