The Grand Illusion (The Lion's Den #4)

Berlin 1936—the grand illusion has begun.

The Nazi authorities have changed with the coming of the Olympic Games to Berlin. A false air of civility has taken over as the government extends a welcome to the world. But below the surface, the police state remains, and hundreds of so-called “undesirables” are rounded up and held in a newly constructed concentration camp in the city. When someone from Seamus Ritter’s past appears, he will be left with no choice but to help him and begin a mission of mercy that could destroy his own family.

Michael Ritter’s dream has become a reality as he competes in the 100 meters against the seemingly unbeatable American, Jesse Owens. But at a lavish party on the eve of the games, he meets a beautiful stranger who will upend his life and change his fate.
