How does a man with little intellect, little education, physically inept and below average good looks become the most famous man in the world in a few short years? How did a Jew create the SS and draft its appalling protocols? How many people within the Third Reich knew that Enigma was a done deal as plotters sought to destroy Hitler whilst big business and Industry determined to keep him as their obedient puppet. A woman desperate to survive scrabbles up a flight of steps as the final bombs rain down on Berlin. An assassin sneaks away hoping never to be heard of again. A politician works desperately to cover his blood-soaked guilt. A patriot who thought that he was doing a noble deed screams his final torture induced agony as he realises that his patriotism was nothing more than murder of his own. They have all lived the life of power and luxury. It is time for a reckoning but even now some of them can’t help but think back yearningly to those glory days of frenetic hedonism.
