An American's Story

by Gaston Delesdandroux

Overview

One reviewer stated that "My definition of this genre is to set a fictional plot amidst an actual historical event, it is actually a very difficult genre to excel at." The author weaves the tale of actual events while the characters are peripherally associated. It is the story of a US Navy Cryptographer with the highest of security clearances stationed at a US Naval Air Station in Jacksonville, Florida who is recruited by the CIA to unmask the mysterious daughter of billionaire arms dealer Claus Scheyk, both suspected KGB operatives. A love affair lasting more than a decade results, changing lives and history forever.

Editorial Reviews

"Gaston has written quite the blockbuster with An American's Story. Set in the 1950's and 1960's it takes us back into the Cold War. It was raging in high gear. I liked the gook a lot..I have to give Gaston high marks for research, the factual aspects are very much right on the nail. I also liked the 'first person' style of writing, the reader is wathching through the eyes of the author."
