Following the end of the war, two young soldiers find themselves behind enemy lines. Through their escape in the French Woods, they discover a hidden treasure - one which could dramatically change their lives. Once they realize the magnitude of the situation, they make a pact to keep it a secret. Unbeknownst to them, this will guide their lives, as well as the lives of their children for the next six decades.

What follows is a fast-paced adventure including greed, romance, murder and more. The story progresses all through Europe and more.

"Though present actions described by a host of well-developed characters, interwoven with glimpses of earlier actions by senior family members and their accomplices, one grasps the complex intricacies of the plot of this novel."

Set during World War II, "The Tangled Web" is a fast-paced telling of two soldiers discovering a fortune which could alter the course of their lives.
