Best-selling alternate history master Robert Conroy returns to World
War II, this time for a dangerous last stand of the Nazis in the heart
of the Alps.
GERMANICA, ÜBER ALLES!
Deep in the heart of Europe's Alps in the redoubt called Germanica, Nazi
propaganda master Josef Goebbels and a battalion of Nazi zealots hold
out against a frantic final Allied push to end World War II. With
Churchill losing his election, De Gaulle consolidating his rule over a
newly liberated France, and Stalin asserting his own nefarious land-grab
in Eastern Germany, only America, led by its untried new president Harry
Truman, remains to face the toughest of Nazi warriors as they hunker
down for a bitter fight to the last man.
Goebbels knows that if he can hold out just a bit longer, the war weary
of the Western nations will back away from unconditional surrender for
Germany, and he and his zealots can remain in power never to answer for
their war crimes, and able to prepare for the moment when their hateful
Nazi ideology is ready once again to rise from its alpine grave and
strike at the heart of humanity!
But there are Americans and a few stalwart Europeans just as determined
to put a final stake in the Nazi heart. It is now up to heroes in the
making such as newly minted O.S.S. operative Ernie Janek, commando
Captain Scott Tanner, and formerly enslaved Czech "Jew" Lena Bobek, to
bring down the dark Nazi menace growing like a cancer in the mountainous
heart of the continent.
