Learn moreInspired by actual events, If War Should Come is a gripping historical novel of intrigue and suspense by William N. Walker.
It’s the autumn of 1939, and Europe lurches uncertainly into war. Paul Muller is catapulted into a diplomatic cauldron of treachery and betrayal as both Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union threaten war on new fronts.
In a compelling narrative of political intrigue and violence, listeners will relish being exposed to the little-known events Muller encounters, vividly illustrating the perils of a confused and fearful time.
No one writes about high-stakes 1930s political intrigue more convincingly than William Walker. If War Should Come is a masterpiece of sophisticated historical fiction.
William N. Walker brings to his Paul Muller novels a lifetime of experience as a diplomat, government official, and international businessman. He is a winner of the Distinguished Alumnus Award from Wesleyan University. Walker is the father of three grown children and lives with his wife on Cape Cod.

Rudnicki is also a stage actor and director.
Reviews
“This is a really good book that captures the drama of Europe descending into war…as Paul Muller tries to navigate a maelstrom of intrigue and violence.”
“[A] gripping, fast paced novel that propels the reader into the violence and upheaval that exploded at the outset of World War II. Realistic and engrossing, readers will be rewarded with a compelling narrative they won’t want to put down.”
