Trivia
- Conrad Fuchs wrote the original manuscript of this story in German. It was then translated by Lilo Wuenn.[1]
- Because of the time that this book was written (1981), the Hardy's were actually in West Germany. However, while there is no mention of East Germany in the book, there are dates and ages mentioned, such as how long it has been since World War II, and as such, this book is set during the 1980's when Germany was still divided into West and East.
