Cancelled is a mystery/adventure, based on the search for the enigmatic Lünersee Stamps, one of many treasures purportedly stolen by the Nazis during and immediately after WWII. The heroine, Elyse, is confronted with the decades-old cold case when she receives a request from her editor, Artur, who assigns her to write an article on philately. In the process of conducting research for the article, Elyse contacts her old college friend Karl, an avid philatelist. The revived relationship exposes Elyse to unanticipated secrecy, adventure and danger, taking her through several countries before ending up in our own southwest. Elyse, caught in the intrigue and fleeing for her life, continues her research, uncovering captivating information about the rarest of stamps, fascinating stamp crimes, and the complex psychology of collectors. A first-time novel for Janet Feduska Cole.
