9 Nov 1939 - 13 Mar 1940The revolt of the German generals had failed and the Nazi purge was mounting in savagery when Gregory Sallust entered Berlin dressed as a Wehrmacht colonel and riding in an official S.S. car. His purpose was to rescue the lovely Erika von Epp, who by now was certain to be In the hands of Nazi torturers: and the only way Sallust could be sure of locating her quickly was to pay a social call on Hermann Goering....How Sallust's colossal audacity takes him into Goering's private sanctum and later out of it as the Reichmarschall's secret emissary to Finland, makes only the start of a story as robust and hair-raising as any of the other best-selling novels by this most distinguished and successful author.
