Love under Fire - E-book - ePub

This work includes three stories. Mirage tells a love story in a violent environment. A French officer who obeys an uncertain chain of command in North Africa is ordered to report on the fate of a group of refugees fleeing ethnic cleansing carried out by the Tuaregs in Mali. The expected relief from world powers gets diluted in a web of strategic interests, leaving the refugees homeless. In this environment love, disappointment and rebellion are born.

Oasis of Light tells the story of a young man sent to a Nazi expedition to Tibet in search of the origin of the Aryan race under the sands of the Gobi desert and what he actually finds in these remote places.
