Produktbeschreibung
It has taken over 40 years to piece together the story of Anya, Willi, and the Icon, like trying to put together a priceless Faberge egg shattered intentionally without a clue as to how it once looked. Anna (Anya) and Wilhelm (Willi) lived in a small German village when we met half a century ago. Their remarkable life stories are the heart of this novel. Real life has many detours and contradictions, each piece of their stories led to another story. An Icon hung on the wall of the entry to their home and it was there that fact met fiction. Weaving related stories into this novel, preserving the memory of each individual and the times in which they lived, required some manipulation of facts. It is the story of a much-travelled Icon and a treasure (not an ARC "Traveling Treasure") including the lives it touched. And it is a story of love found late in life.

Autorenporträt
Joe Hipp is a retired Air Force Navigator, studied Journalism at Texas A&M, landed a Texas Press Association internship on the San Antonio Express-News before graduation in 1954. That began his writing career. He flew in the backseat of an Air Defense Command F-89, running intercepts until released from active duty, worked on a weekly newspaper until recalled in 1959 (Lebanon Crisis). With tours in England, Vietnam and Germany, he retired from the Air Force in 1986, and began traveling in a motorhome, volunteering with Habitat for Humanity and church builders. Writing three non-fiction books and his first novel, he settled in the Army Residence Community. Traveling the Lewis and Clark trail several times, he discovered the story of 'Walks With Bear.'
