In the RENDEZVOUS WITH DESTINY series, T. Davis Bunn has captured the drama and reality of post-World War II Europe and North America. Readers have come to know the men, women, and children who struggled to survive amid the incredible devastation and chaos left in the war's aftermath. In Berlin Encounter, Bunn takes his readers face to face with the Community tyranny and the potential for mass destruction in Europe.
Colonel Jake Burnes had never imagined himself a spy, but the acclaim he garnered for rescuing a French resistance hero and bringing a traitor to justice led to a more clandestine assignment. Now he must venture into the sector of Germany held by the Red Army and secure the safe passage of two rocket scientists to the West. NATO intelligence assures him that nothing less than the balance of power in the post-war world is at stake. But Jake is unaware that Russian spies have infiltrated this elite group, jeopardizing his mission and life.
Still in the pleasure of being a newlywed, his wife Sally learns of the danger and rushes to warn Jake. But just as they are about to flee from Berlin with the scientists, Stalin's stranglehold around the city tightens even further. Now they must escape the notorious Berlin Blockade, or face certain death on charges of espionage!
Another compelling read in the RENDEZVOUS WITH DESTINY.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5American Colonel Jake Burnes has a new postwar assignment: to rescue two rocket scientists in occupied Germany. But an infiltration of Russian spies could foil Jake's mission in Berlin Encounter, a novel by author T. Davis Bunn.On I've rolled with this fourth book in the Rendezvous with Destiny series. Indeed, I not only rolled but basically flew through it.It's both interesting and pretty heartbreaking, still, to see the dire and precarious aftermath of a world war. Refugees. Hyperinflation. Poverty. The threat of the Nazis now past but Stalin and the Soviets looming like an ominous cloud.It's good to see that Jake still has room for inner growth as a protagonist, but he's not just facing the same problem time and again, as if he "gets over" something in one book, and then he's totally back to square one in the next. The (continuing) thread of romance is relatively minor but strong here, and though I missed Jake's sidekick, Pierre, for much of the book, it was satisfying to see him eventually appear--and to know he will appear again.I found the climax of this story to be fairly tame, but that's better than a contrived heightening or overstretching of drama would've been. And, goodness, Churchill's historic declaration about "an iron curtain," along with the last disclosure of this novel, is quite an intriguing setup for the fifth and final book in the series.
