Description

Having been sent to Berlin by Winston Churchill to gather sufficient evidence to prove that Hitler had indeed committed suicide, a British Intelligence officer stumbles on a mystery surrounding the disappearance of a woman called Anna Traube.

Forced to abandon his investigation into her disappearance, following his death, the baton is taken up by his nephew, Rex, a freelance journalist. After reading the dossier left by his late uncle, intrigued by his belief that Anna Traube was part of a conspiracy surrounding Hitler’s death, he decides to investigate her disappearance himself.

Arriving in Magdeburg, the city where Anna had lived at the beginning of the war, he discovers that she has a daughter, Lotte. Deserted at birth and desperate to find the mother she had never known, she persuades him to let her join him on his hunt for her missing mother. A quest which will take them across Europe to South America and a meeting with a woman long thought to be dead. A woman who is harbouring a terrifying secret; Hitler had fathered a child.
