"This gripping audiobook, narrated ably by Scott Brick, focuses on the
chilling premise that both candidates for chancellor of Germany are
Hitler's children...Brick's delivery is superb, bringing to the mic his
ability to create unique voices--in this case, characters with
distinctive accents from Germany, South America, and elsewhere. As the
story unfolds, so, too, does Brick's intensity--right up to the
audiobook's explosive conclusion." -- AudioFile Magazine, Earphones

In New York Times bestseller Steve Berry's latest 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.
