Dawn of Liberty (Secret of the Rose)

Many years after their daring escape from a divided Germany, Sabina and Matthew McCallum return with their son, Tad, to attend a conference on preaching the gospel of Christ in a country still scarred by the Cold War.

What they discover is troubling. Western Christianity, while well-intentioned, is not filling the unique needs of Christians in the war-torn East. And even though the Cold War is over, political strife is bubbling just below the surface€"and Sabina and Matthew become entangled in a Communist plot to seize control of Eastern Europe. Once again, the couple must call upon their instinctive talent for survival€"and their deep faith in God€s protection€"to protect their family.
