Transfer Day A Novel [Paperback]

Transfer Day is a special edition of Spy Island that was written to commemorate the upcoming 100th Anniversary of Transfer Day (1917-2017). Soren Jensen is a Danish journalist on a mission. He's traveling to St. Thomas to pursue a human interest story, but he's really on a personal quest to uncover secrets about his own family's past. The story concerns an old woman named Abigail Maduro, who claimed on her deathbed to have averted a German takeover of the Danish West Indies during WWI. While investigating the story, Soren meets up with Claire Lehman, Abigail's granddaughter, who shares her grandmother's diary with Soren, which transports them both back to 1916 with its intriguing tale of spies, saboteurs, a mad voodoo queen, and a lonely deserter from a German U-boat who desperately tries to escape his past. During one fateful night, Soren learns the explosive truth about his own family's past, and how everybody's life was changed forever on one fateful day: Transfer Day.
