Reunited brothers confront a secret Allied betrayal in postwar
Munich. Occupied Munich, 1946: Irina, a Cossack refugee, confesses
to murdering a GI, but American captain Harry Kaspar doesn't buy
it. As Harry scours the devastated city for the truth, it leads him
to his long-lost German brother, Max, who returned to Hitler's
Germany before the war. Max has a questionable past, and he needs
Harry for the cause that could redeem him: rescuing Irina's
stranded clan of Cossacks who have been disowned by the Allies and
are now being hunted by Soviet death squads the cold-blooded upshot
of a callous postwar policy. As a harsh winter brews, the Soviets
close in and the Cold War looms, Harry and Max desperately plan for
a risky last-ditch rescue on a remote stretch of the German-Czech
border. A mysterious visitor from Max's darkest days shadows them.
Everyone is suspect, including Harry's lover, Sabine, and Munich
detective Hartmut Dietz both of whom have pledged to help. But
before the Kaspar brothers can save the innocent victims of peace,
grave secrets and the deep contempt sown during the war threaten to
damn them all. Skyhorse Publishing, as well as our Arcade, Yucca,
