Long Beach Author Publishes Captivating New Autobiography

"No Place for Innocence," a new book by Bernice L. Hogan, has been released RoseDog Books.

An exciting tale of travel, intrigue, romance, and espionage unwinds as Bernice L. Hogan, the author, shares her adventures while working in Japan for the Air Force during the Korean War.

Hogan lived on an Air Force Base that housed the B-29 bombers and the crews who flew nightly bombing missions over North Korea. Over the two-year period she was there, the author worked as a secretary to four Brigadier Generals, each assigned to the base for a six-month tour of duty.

Through a bizarre set of circumstances, and without the author's knowledge, Hogan had been placed under investigation for espionage. The story takes the reader through intense workplace challenges, colorful friendships, and the urgency and glamour of a wartime romance.

About the Author:
Bernice L. Hogan, the author, was born and raised in New York City. At the age of eighteen her love of travel, art and excitement drew her to southern California, which has remained her permanent home.

The Korean War was in full swing in the early 1950s and Hogan signed a two-year contract to work for the Air Force as a civilian secretary in Japan.
