Today, they are the Czech Republic and Slovakia, once....


“Betrayal. High Drama and Love!”  “Klara’s Journey, A Novel.”

May is an important month in the birth of Czechoslovakia and the ensuing Russian Civil War. Although Czechoslovakia achieved independence  on October 28, 1918,  the historical setting actually took place in May, 1918, in an incident  at  Chelyabinsk in Siberia. Chelyabinsk, the town where the meteor crashed last year.  The incident in that city in  1918, however, caused the Czechs to break with the Bolsheviks; seize the Trans-Siberian railway; and propel the Whites to power east of the Volga. For Klara Rasputnis, the heroine in my historical novel, Klara’s Journey,”(Marion Street Press)  the incident will  have unbelievable consequences for her, for  her loved ones and the civil war that tears Russia apart.  Pre-order now! http://bit.ly/WyVSWq for an autographed copy!
