When Professor Thomas Pemberton disappears while involved in some very shadowy business and
political affairs, his daughter, Samantha, a twenty-four-year-old student at Georgetown University, travels to
Europe to find him. Little does Samantha know (or does she?) how much danger and intrigue await her.
1Set in contemporary style, Return to Berlin, by Dr. Samantha M. McDermitt, Esq., unravels the
undercurrent of terroristic times and includes neo-Nazis, stolen tactical nuclear weapons, and a plot by a
powerful, clandestine organization to seize control of a Western European NATO government. Samantha is
willing, and surprisingly able, to meet all of the above head on, as she is a strong, modern woman trained in
both martial arts and the use of firearms. Yet she is also a thoughtful, intelligent, and caring woman,
certainly not immune to the siren song oflove.
With sinister plotlines and vivid character portrayals, Dr. McDermitt catches and holds her reader's
attention from the very first page. The adventure continues on a roller coaster ride of action and suspense
wherein the technology of battlefield nuclear weapons, moral dilemmas, human motivations, and an inside
look at exceptional intelligence work all play major roles. Who can Samantha trust as she searches for her
father?
How deep does her father's involvement in espionage really run? And what overriding secret emotion does
Samantha use as her primary motivation?
Return to Berlin combines all those aspects necessary to make hours of entertaining reading fly by like
minutes. Inevitably, readers will do well to ask themselves, if what they're just read as fiction isn't
happening today in reality as well!
