The Note Through The Wire - Doug Gold

This is a fictionalized novel about Bruce Murray a young New Zealand Prisoner of War and his chance encounter with Josefine Lobnik, a young Yugoslavian resistance fighter.   Such a nice unique war story that is based on the true story of his in-laws and how they got met.  It was so nice to read a story that sadly had to be based on letters and articles as like so many of their generation, they didn't talk about their experiences, and to have this story before it is lost.  4/5

It's too bad many of that generation didn't record their stories. Then again, they aren't like people now, who think that every item of their lives is of the utmost importance. They were more modest people then.
