Berlin Book 1: Hot and Cold
The year is 1980. Gay soldiers desiring to serve their country must do it with extreme caution. One step out of the closet and they risk a dishonorable discharge. Many forgo their social life to live their profession. First Lieutenant Brett Walker is but one example of such a person. Until one evening he spies a flier on the wall of the Berlin U-Bahn for a bar called Club David. For the first time in his twenty-six years, Brett chances a visit to a gay bar to see a drag queen show. His daring move sets in motion the events that will alter his life completely and forever.

Jakob Haas leaves the Navy Seals for the CIA. He finds it too difficult to live a lie with his brothers in the Navy. He chooses a place where he believes it will be easier to hide his true self even though he understands being gay in the agency is prohibited. His plan works until given his assignment as Lieutenant Walker's trainer.

In Berlin Book 1, The personal side of the story is not about the details of how the two interact behind closed doors, but is a story of why they interact the way they do.
