Fighting Ibex

It's January 1955, hostilities of the Korean War ended some eighteen months earlier. The Cold War is entering a new phase as Europe continues to improve after the desolation of WWII. For Victoria Shannon though, this is not her concern as she prepares to begin a fairytale life with her very own Prince Charming. Unfortunately things are not always as they seem as she finds herself abandoned in Cortina, Italy. Victoria is now faced with a decision; return to New York with her tail between her legs or show the Europeans what a woman from Hell's Kitchen is capable of. With the majestic Dolomites as a background, she is befriended by a sympathetic and compassionate staff plus several military officers from both Italy and the United States. As the Cold War evolves around this group of newly formed friends it becomes evident that allies may not be who they appear to be and that enemy may be closer than they think. This is the first book of the Cold War series by Leo Peterson.
