What if Hitler faked his suicide and fled to Argentina like so many leading Nazis?
That question, and its consequences, form the bedrock of this debut novel from Brian Klein, who Top Gear fans will know as its foremost director.
2 separate timelines create this story until they converge. The first, being Hitler’s escape from Germany and his long term plan to build a fourth reich. The second is the aftermath of the biggest heist in Argentine history, where three unwitting thieves steal a box that precludes their bloody end.
This novel is fast-paced, engaging, and cleverly interwoven between timelines, with plenty of clever surprises on the way. It also speaks a lot to where the real power lies, particularly in countries like the USA, and it’s not always with the government. Though the premise of this story is (thankfully) fiction, it still mirrors a sorrowful amount the interplay between politicians and big money, and the devastating consequences that can have.
