MOONLIGHT SERENADE
Book Three of the Vim Hood Chronicles
By Terry Mark
285 pgs
With this volume, writer Terry Mark continues his thrilling alternate history series featuring some very famous personalies. He picks up the narrative in Europe shortly after the Normandy invasion by allied troops. We find General Patton leading his armored command across France at such speed as if to threaten his own gas supply lines. Meanwhile in the South Pacific, Amelia Earhart, is alive and operating as an island spotter for the U.S. Navy observing the movements of Japanese warships. When that mission is completed, she recruits a young Navy flier named Paul Newman to accompany her to Europe and a rendezvous with Patton.
Meanwhile a frightened young teenage Anne Frank has escaped her family’s hiding
place and while on the run encounters a trio of savage Nazis werewolves. All of
which has to do with Hitler’s attempt to find the source of the mysterious Vim
gems that grant people arcane powers and the ability to make super weapons of
mass destruction.
Once again, Mark weaves real history with his daring alternate world supernatural storyline to achieve the maximum in spills and thrills. Oh, and did we mention a certain trumpet player named Glenn Miller also has a part to play in the adventure. Just like his first two books in the series, “Moonlight Serenade” is pure pulp from start to finish. We urge you not only to pick it up but do yourselves a favor and also latch on to those first two books, “Kill the Night” and “And the Sun Goeth Down.” Really, you’ll be glad you did.
