The Devil’s Spies

Fueled by tenacity and a will to survive, will this German man stand strong against the Communist evil infiltrating his homeland?

Germany, 1945. Joseph Werner’s young life is one of struggle. Lurking among the wreckage of Berlin, the starving war orphan will do anything to fill his belly. But when he’s caught trying to steal from another boy his age, he’s shocked to be met with compassion and adopted into his would-be victim’s Lutheran family.

Unable to shed his past, the now twenty-four-year-old struggles to live up to the ideals of his faith while his adoptive sibling attends seminary. And stunned when the Berlin Wall cuts them off from the West, the resourceful man strives to balance his black-market career by providing critical supplies to the needy.

As his battle winds down corrupt paths, can Joseph prevail without losing his soul?

Delving into everyday life under East Germany’s power-hungry government, K.C. Sivils examines the dark impacts of Stasi Department XX/4’s undermining of the church. And as readers join his characters beneath the malevolent shadow of the Berlin Wall, they’ll be swept up by the betrayal, division, and longing for freedom.
