On April 29th 1945, the allies secretly surrendered to Nazi Germany....four hours later the surrender was withdrawn. The world never knew...until now.
It's early April of 1945 and the dog-days of World War II. The Nazi regime is being slowly throttled by the oncoming Russian and Allied armies. But the Nazi high command have one more throw of the dice to make... An audacious plan is hatched to save the Fatherland and beat off the oncoming apocalypse. All it will take is a rag-tag squadron of escort fighters, a captured US bomber and a brave young Luftwaffe crew to fly it over the Atlantic into the beating heart of America. Half a century later, a rusting plane is discovered, sunk with its crew, off the coast of New York - a relic from a bygone age. Chris Roland, a freelance nature photographer, is sent to take photos of this time capsule. Only when he discovers fragments of German uniforms on the skeletal remains inside does he realise that he has come across a secret so terrible that even sixty years later it could still kill him...
A thriller that takes place in the present and the past. As both storylines hurtle towards a conclusion, the final and most terrifying secret of WWII hangs in the balance.
