Sinopsis
Captain Thomas Calder didn't die in France in 1944 - but the man he became there did.
Ten years into a marriage built on discretion, Calder has a quiet postwar career on the State Department's Western Europe Desk, a wife, Liz, who reads him better than his own case officers do, and a wartime report that has held together for a decade because no one had reason to pull the thread. Then Isabel Montcada - a woman Calder buried in his memory along with a version of the war he never wrote down - walks into a Washington reception very much alive, and settles, uninvited, into the space between Calder and his wife.
What follows isn't betrayal in any single act. It's the slow collapse of a story two people have been telling themselves since a firefight in southern France - a story that starts coming apart the moment someone else asks the right question. As a wartime inquiry, a Soviet investigation, and a Falangist network converge on the one name they all share, Calder has to decide what he's protecting: the truth, his career, Isabel, or Liz. He's fast running out of ways to keep those four things separate.
A Veritable Quandary is a Cold War espionage novel about the lies a marriage can absorb, and the ones it can't.

Acerca del autor
Edward C. Distel writes fiction shaped by memory, exile, war, and the quiet lives history often forgets. Raised in a multilingual household and deeply influenced by the immigrant experience, his work explores loyalty, identity, survival, and the stories people carry in silence.
Drawn to both novels and short fiction, Distel believes the most powerful stories are often the most intimate. His writing blends literary realism with psychological depth, creating characters marked as much by what they cannot say as by what they do.
He prefers to let his characters speak for themselves.
These are his first published works, though far from his only stories.
