_________________________

What if Hitler had won the war?

It is April 1964 and one week before Hitler's 75th birthday. Xavier March, a detective of the Kriminalpolizei, is called out to investigate the discovery of a dead body in a lake near Berlin's most prestigious suburb.

As March discovers the identity of the body, he uncovers signs of a conspiracy that could go to the very top of the German Reich. And, with the Gestapo just one step behind, March, together with an American journalist, is caught up in a race to discover and reveal the truth - a truth that has already killed, a truth that could topple governments, a truth that will change history.

Reviews

  • Clever and ingenious... Its breeding is by Orwell, out of P. D. James, a detective story inside a future shock

    Daily Mail

  • A writer who handles suspense like a literary Alfred Hitchcock

    NELSON MANDELA

  • Robert Harris has recreated the whole structure of a totally corrupt society in a way that makes the flesh creep

    JOHN MORTIMER

  • Powerful and chilling... convincing in every detail

    MARTHA GELLHORN

  • Gripping in the way John Buchan, Len Deighton and John LeCarré are. The writing is superb

    WOODROW WYATT

  • The highest form of thriller... non-stop excitement

    The Times

  • Tightly constructed... grips as tightly as a Nazi's glove

    Independent on Sunday

  • A fantastic thriller... The final solution is an utter surprise. Harris reaches it with speed, conveying a whole culture of grotesquery and kitsch

    Mail on Sunday

  • Ingenious... fast-paced and beautifully written

    Esquire
