game-changer, 1945
Only days after Normandy, Hitler is taken out of the equation and
Heinrich Himmler, brutal head of the SS, assumes control of the Reich.
On the Allied side, there is confusion. Should attempts be made to
negotiate with the new government or should unconditional surrender
still be the only option? With the specter of a German super-weapon
moving closer to completion and the German generals finally allowed to
fight the kind of war at which they are masters, the Allies are pushed
toward a course of accommodation or even defeat. Will the soldiers of
the Grand Alliance find the courage and conviction to fight on in the
face of such daunting odds? And can the Allied leaders put into place a
new plan in time to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat by the German
war machine? A new and terrible battle for the free world is on.
