Koenig's Wonder - a True Champion
 

FORT LAUDERDALE, March 2005:  Koenig’s Wonder, a riveting multi-generational saga of a fragmented family emigrated from Germany, blends the world of horse-racing and international art into a masterpiece of mystery and intrigue.  In this fictional world of horse racing, Koenig’s Wonder, a magnificent Kentucky Derby winning Thoroughbred stars in author Linda Kuhlmann’s novel of family secrets, deception, greed and murder.   

 

In 1937, two brothers flee pre-Nazi Germany and embark at Ellis Island in New York City with only a white Lipizzan stallion and a stolen Friedrich painting. Their relationship, fractured by deceit, causes the brothers to go their separate ways in their new homeland.  What follows affects three generations of the Maseman family as they are torn apart by greed, war, and revenge.   

 

Years later, Emma Maseman discovers the harsh truth about her family when she is investigated for the theft of Koenig’s Wonder. As the mysteries unravel, Koenig’s Wonder races toward the finish line in a brilliant and thoroughly engrossing fashion.

 

Reviewers agree that Koenig’s Wonder is one champion read:

        “A good read!  This first novel by a local writer was enjoyed by the entire family.  My wife stayed up two nights really late because she was entrapped by the characters.  Linda did a great job.  Hope to see more in the future!” -- Richard J. Gresham, Albany, Oregon
