About After Tarawa - A Wartime Thriller from New Zealand

In late 1943, Harry Wilhelm is sent from New Zealand to fight with the US Marine Corps during the attack on Tarawa Atoll in the Gilbert Islands. When a war photographer snaps a photograph of him bringing in a body from the surf, his image is seen around the world, with unintended consequences. Back in New Zealand, Kate Hardy is spooked by a sighting of an old enemy. She flees back to her grandmother's farm, only to run into her old boyfriend, Brian, returned from Crete and ready to reconnect--with conditions. After Tarawa, the third book in the Kate Hardy Wartime Adventures, brings the story of Kate and Harry to a conclusion, with murders, betrayals, old enemies, new enemies, and death by elevator shaft.
