One of WWII's most successful weapons was the Norden bombsight.
Nazis coveted them the most from downed US bombers. American
flyboys were taught to destroy the bombsights with thermal
grenades, which caused them to melt into a molten mass rather than
let them fall into enemy hands. When Hitler learns that an improved
version would undergo testing on a B-17 by Honeywell Corporation in
Minnesota, he orders Abwehr (German intelligence) to steal it for
deliverance to his scientists and engineers in Berlin. Two spies
with specific skills are tasked for the assignment. The idealism of
one conflicts with the murderous acts of the other. Slayings occur
during their journey from Sandy Hook, New Jersey, to
Wold-Chamberlain Field in Minneapolis. Colonel Lukas Schott, the
scion of German royalty, is a country gentleman and is blind to the
fanaticism and treachery of the Third Reich. Major Rebekka Bader,
an orphan and a pathological killer, wreaks destruction and death
at every opportunity. Dissonance between them is ever-present. FBI
Chief Inspector Lorenzo Tharp, like a bloodhound, follows their
trail of dead bodies.
