*The Dark Side of Fred

To his pupils in school Fred Braun, their German language teacher is a world weary 'fifties' with a bit of a roving eye. Little do they know of his student days in Berlin; of Ulrike's battered body made unrecognisable by the riot police; or of the terrible revenge which the Baader-Meinhof group wrecked on its enemies. No, Frederich Weisbaden-Hase's dark side remains out of sight - until his return to Germany with a school trip when his past rises up to confront him.

The Forbidden Degree

James Edgware's last visit to Spain during the Franco regime ended in his being given twenty-four hours to quit the country. Now thirty-five years later the authorities are far from welcoming. Is it still something to do with the beautiful Anna with whom he had a brief and intense relationship, or the stewardess Maria who reminds him so much of his former mistress?

Two stories of international intrigue from first time novelist Charles Bunyan.
