Das Fräulein und Raphael [The Miss and Raphael]

By: Ronald Peterson

Narrated by: Dani McIntyre

Das Fräulein und Raphael is a historical novel of the survival and ideological change of Kathryn Steiner, a young, beautiful, well-educated, and intellectual woman originally committed and loyal to the NSDAP (Nazi Party).

Kathryn has connections at the highest levels of the Third Reich and uses her extraordinary survival skills to escape war-ravaged Germany in 1945 for New York City. After graduation from Columbia Law School, Kathryn becomes a US citizen and converts her political ideology from Nazism to democracy and capitalism. She is recruited by the newly formed CIA and, at the beginning of the Cold War, she is assigned to the US Embassy in Moscow as a spy and assassin.

Das Fräulein und Raphael highlights key events involving the United States, Britain, the Soviet Union and Germany as participants in the origin of the Cold War, during the period 1942 through 1948.
