The Note Through the Wire is a true World War II love story about a Slovenian partisan, Josefine Lobnik, and a New Zealand prisoner of war, Bruce Murray, who met by chance when she pushed a note through the barbed wire fence of a POW camp. A series of remarkable coincidences saw their lives intersect, but they had to overcome extraordinary obstacles to realise their dream of a life together. On one level this is a rollicking yarn, with tales of intrigue, daring, resistance, retaliation and escape. On another it's a fascinating account of the resistance movement, the disastrous Allied Greek campaign, the harshness of wartime life in a conquered nation, the civil tensions that divided a young country and the barbarity of the advancing Soviet forces. But at its heart this is an against-all-odds love story between a POW and a local freedom fighter - a true story with all the elements of fast-paced fiction.;Cover; Title page; Copyright; Dedication; Contents; Maps; Chapter One: Bruce, Stalag XVIIID, 15 February 1942; Chapter Two: Josefine, Maribor, 12 to 15 February 1942; Chapter Three: Bruce, Stalag XVIID, 15 February 1942; Chapter Four: Bruce & Josefine, Wellington and Maribor; Chapter Five: Bruce, Cairo, February 1940 to March 1941; Chapter Six: Josefine, Maribor, April 1941 to January 1942; Chapter Seven: Bruce, Greece, March to April 1941; Chapter Eight: Josefine, Maribor, January to March 1942; Chapter Nine: Bruce, Greece, April to May 1941
