All four novels in this series were published in England, Three of them in Japan, and two (so far) in Germany. Follow this link at amazon.com , and then search for Roberta Rogow.

Fantasy-Adventure (think pseudo-renaissance culture Conan as one of a bumbling kind of Three Musketeers)
In world where Germany's culture is strongly influenced by Arabian Nights culture, costume, and politics— a Warrior given a gold wolf medallion right before he was drafted into the army, a womanizing Mage, and a female Thief attempt to discover the truth about the Goldenwolf Family without getting killed in the process.

Original Feature Treatment: Women in Action Women Buddy Film/Action-Adventure/Family

Roberta, the aerobics studio owner/manager, and Laurel, the police public relations manager who had real street training, are determined to find and rescue their children -- even if they have to do it together.
