On 29 April 1945 the Allies secretly surrendered unconditionally to
Nazi Germany. Four hours later, that surrender was withdrawn. The
world never knew - until now... It is early April of 1945. The Nazi
regime is being slowly throttled by the oncoming Russian and Allied
armies and Hitler rages uselessly in his Berlin bunker. But the
high command have one more throw of the dice to make... An
audacious plan is hatched to save the Fatherland and beat off the
approaching apocalypse. All it will take is a hodge-podge squadron
of escort fighters, a captured US bomber and one suicidally brave
pilot 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 brilliant young photographer, is sent to take
photos of this time capsule. But it is only when he discovers the
fragments of Nazi uniforms on the decaying corpses that he realises
he has come across a secret so terrible that even fifty years later
it could still kill him...
