Sometimes, when you’re trying to determine who you are, what you discover is who you are not.

Bolzano: Reschen Valley Part 3
1937. Northern Italy. New international conflicts loom on the horizon, and Italy must feed its war machine. Angelo Grimani has a plan to keep the Reschen Valley reservoir out of his father’s hands but he needs a local front to succeed. He faces his past and seeks an alliance with Katharina Steinhauser. But when he sees Annamarie, Katharina's daughter, for the first time, Angelo realizes he faces an altogether different conflict.

When you cannot hide from the truth, where do you run? And what if it’s into the arms of your very enemy?

In this third installment of the award-winning historical fiction series, Lucyk-Berger portrays the mounting political pressure from both Hitler’s and Mussolini’s regimes on the South Tyroleans. As Europe braces itself for an inevitable second world war, the Tyroleans in the Reschen Valley pit themselves against giant industrialists, corrupt politicians, and a divided society. An explosive, eye-opening series that tells the story of a famous tourist spot in northern Italy: the Reschen Lake reservoir.

Two Fatherlands: Reschen Valley Part 4
1938. Northern Italy. Angelo puts aside his prejudices and seeks alliances with old enemies; Katharina finds ingenious ways to preserve what is left of her community, and Annamarie wrests herself from the black forces of Nazism with plans to return home. But when Hitler and Mussolini present the Tyroleans with “The Option”, the residents are forced to choose between Italian and German nationhood with no guarantee that they will be able to stay in Tyrol at all!

Angelo, Katharina and Annamarie are trapped on separate fronts, forced to take a stand, but their enemies lurk where they thought was safest. Out of the ruins of war, will they be able to find their way back to one another and pick up the pieces?

★★★★★ "Lucyk-Berger is a born storyteller." – Mary Anne Yarde, Coffee Pot Book Club blogger

★★★★★ "Absolutely gripping storytelling. These characters jump off the page and take you to a place too few of us have heard about; a tragic conflict overshadowed by the many atrocities committed during WW2. The Tyroleans were victims of calculated corruption enacted by the two fascist leaders, and Lucyk-Berger has whisked off the dust cover of a popular tourist spot to reveal a dark history and a highly controversial story beneath the Reschen Lake reservoir."
