Berlin, 1964. Nazi Germany has won the war in Europe, Adolf Hitler is approaching his seventy-fifth birthday and the Reich is preparing for a diplomatic opening to the United States. Criminal investigator Xavier March is called to a suspicious death whose victim belongs to the regime’s highest ranks.

With American journalist Charlotte Maguire, March follows a trail of murdered officials and missing records. The investigation leads to the state secret on which the victorious Reich depends and forces him to choose between personal survival and evidence capable of destroying the regime’s constructed history.
