The Undeclared War: the first novel of the Lithuanian trilogy.

The following three novels, The Undeclared War, Across The Green Border and The Invisible Front are inspired by a family who had an incredible story to tell about oppression in their occupied country of Lithuania during World War II. The story is based on facts and much research for the novels was done in Lithuania. They hold drama, action and emotion - enough to make the author shed a tear during his writings. He hopes you enjoy the journey.

For Jonas Petraitis, Chief of Police in Kaunas, Lithuania, the  worst he has to deal with is the occasional murder - until June 15, 1940, when the Soviet Army crosses the border and occupies his country. Through manipulation and deception Lithuania is annexed to the Soviet Union. Murder, rape and mass deportations follow as a band of partisans - store owners, journalists, teachers, policemen - prepares to fight against the might of the  Red Army to restore their country’s freedom. The story that unfolds is both a compelling human drama and an insightful study of war and its dark underbelly.
