About the Book

THE THRILL-PACKED story of two rival airmen, Count Otto-Karl von Holovsky of the Austro-Hungarian Air Service, and Lieutenant Donnie Downing of the Royal Flying Corps. Holovsky, a native of Vienna and an ex-cavalry officer, a true-blue Austrian aristocrat and a wealthy nobleman who loves his country and his family, sees the world war as a cataclysmic event that is slowly destroying the Habsburg Empire. Although he scores plenty of victories over his Italian and English opponents, he flies and fights with a heavy heart; the war must end soon or all will be lost.

Downing, a feisty, street-wise cockney lad from London's east end, not only despises the Austrian Count because he's an enemy airman, but because he shot down and killed his best friend, a fellow squadron mate. Downing vows to avenge his friend's death by personally killing the Count. And where ever they should meet, high above the precipitous peaks of the Alps, or over the bloodied waters of the Piave, Count Holovsky in his fast, red-nosed Aviatik, Donnie Downing in his dirty-brown Sopwith Camel, death, destiny and hatred will surely be flying with them. The compelling tale of revenge, redemption and fierce aerial combat!
About the Author: DEKE D. WAGNER was born in Mississippi and raised in the Georgia. The son of an American Air Force sergeant and a German mother from Hesse-Darmstadt, Deke grew up having a keen interest in aviation and his German heritage. At the tender age of ten-years-old he read Baron von Richthofen's autobiography, Der Rote Kampfflieger (The Red Air Fighter) and has ever since been enthralled with tales of air aces and air combat. After high school and a stint in the U.S. Army and Reserves, Deke attended art school but made little progress. He spent the next two decades pursuing a semi-professional musical career as a singer/songwriter before attempting his first novel "The Eagle and the Albatros." Deke also enjoys singing, playing guitar and recording music. He currently resides in Augusta, Georgia.
