As Time Goes By

By J.M. Hamilton

John Worthington is a young Army JAG officer newly stationed in West Germany. On a trip to Nuremberg he meets Katrina, a beautiful German cabaret dancer, and he falls head over heels in love.Katrina tells John about how she escaped from her home in Communist East Germany, her brief career as an acrobat with a circus traveling through Spain, and about her run-in with the East German secret police when she tried to return home to visit her parents in the East.John's courts-martial duties include defending a soldier accused of murder and prosecuting another soldier for the crime of rape.The two lovers enjoy passionate weekends together, take a three-day getaway to Lake Constance on the German-Swiss border, spend a week of sunshine and love on the island paradise of Majorca in the Mediterranean Sea, and go to a bullfight.The story takes place in the decade of the 1960s as the shadow of World War II still lingered over much of Europe, but after the immediate hard postwar years. Large contingents of American Army forces are stationed throughout West Germany. The Cold War, the Berlin Wall, and the division of East and West Germany are accepted as routine facts of life.
