In every great love story, someone goes the distance against the odds.

Aneska Latva was born to play piano, April 4, 1929, in Hamburg, Germany.

Just two months older than Anne Frank, child prodigy Aneska battled the

shadows of the same villainous tyranny. Like Anne, the darkness threatened

her family, dreams and life.

Through it all, Aneska's weapons were music, faith, undying love and an

indomitable spirit.

Now in her eighties, resettled in Ireland, she engages a musician/author to

write her story. Retracing the arduous maze of her life, Aneska draws her

biographer through his own shadowland toward the culmination of her

Magnum Opus.

In his epic second novel, Billy Sprague paints a gripping love story forged in

the crucible of World War II. Inspiring, heart-wrenching and ironically relevant,

Untamable is set amid a turbulent mural of the cycle of tyranny and madness

that still wars against but reveals the best in the human spirit - and the cost and

source of its triumph.
