In New York Times bestseller Steve Berry's next Cotton Malone
adventure, a secret dossier from a World War II-era Soviet spy comes to
light containing information that, if proven true, would not only
rewrite history -- it could impact Germany's upcoming national elections
and forever alter the political landscape of Europe.
Two candidates are vying to become Chancellor of Germany. One is a
patriot having served for the past sixteen years, the other a usurper,
stoking the flames of nationalistic hate. Both harbor secrets, but only
one knows the truth about the other. They are on a collision course, all
turning on the events of one fateful day -- April 30, 1945 -- and what
happened deep beneath Berlin in the Fürherbunker. Did Adolph Hitler
and Eva Braun die there? Did Martin Bormann, Hitler's close confidant,
manage to escape? And, even more important, where did billions in Nazi
wealth disappear to in the waning days of World War II? The answers to
these questions will determine who becomes the next Chancellor of
Germany.
From the mysterious Chilean lake district, to the dangerous mesas of
South Africa, and finally into the secret vaults of Switzerland,
former-Justice Department agent Cotton Malone discovers the truth about
the fates of Hitler, Braun, and Bormann. Revelations that could not only
transform Europe, but finally expose a mystery known as the Kaiser's
web.
