A Novel
by Robert Ryan

A daughter's quest to find the father she never knew exposes deadly intrigue within the Italian Resistance in this spellbinding novel of World War II. On the occasion of his only daughter's first birthday, Australian bomber pilot Bill Carr writes her a letter. Later that day, he takes off on a mission over the mountains of Northern Italy and is never heard from again. Twenty years later, Lindy Carr arrives in Italy to find out what happened to her father. Her guide is Jack Kirby, a daredevil motorcycle racer and pilot who flew Mosquito fighters in the war and spent time among the Italian partisans. Jack knows the region where Bill Carr vanished like his own backyard, and the farther he and Lindy push into the mountains, the more convinced he becomes that he knows something about the fatal flight in question as well. What Jack and Lindy uncover in the picturesque Italian Alps is a secret so earth shattering it will change both their lives forever.

Dying Day
A Novel
by Robert Ryan
Part 3 of the Post-War Trilogy series
In this Cold War spy thriller based on actual case files, a beautiful young woman is willing to do whatever it takes to bring her sister home. In the darkest days of World War II, Laura McGill and her sister, Diana, were willing to go behind enemy lines on behalf of Britain's Special Operations Executive. They knew the risks and were willing to take them for king and country. What they did not expect was that their government would forget all about them once the war was over. It is the spring of 1948, four years since Diana disappeared inside occupied France, and Laura is sick of being ignored - so sick that she is willing to kidnap the head clerk of the SOE at gunpoint in order to learn the name of the spy who ran her sister's last mission. The name she gets, James Hadley Webb, will take Laura to Berlin, a divided city on the verge of being cut off from the Western world. Webb is on the front lines of a new kind of war, a shadow war of influence and intrigue - and losing. Laura's arrival, unwelcome as it is, may be just what Webb needs to turn things around - and stop his agents from dying.
