A Memoir of Betrayal
Listen
International cellist and journalist Laurinel Owen knew her husband, Klaus, for 27 years — or so she thought. After nursing him through a lengthy illness and eventually mourning his passing, She discovered that Klaus had taken a devastating secret to his grave: she wasn’t his only wife. But that wasn’t all. Klaus had bilked her out of thousands of dollars and was the son of a Nazi murderer who had fled the United States amid FBI accusations of being the head of the American Gestapo. With honesty and vulnerability, Owen invites readers into her multi-faceted tale of deceit, self-deception and the high price she paid for living in denial. Her husband’s transgressions spawned a three-continent lawsuit that she had to navigate while bearing the weight of the shame she carried over her part in the real-life drama. She has published over 130 articles in Strings Magazine and the British magazines The Strad and Muso on topics related to cello technique, soloist, luthier and music school profiles, concert, festival, and record reviews.
