    Hitlerovo tajemství
    • Podzim 1941. Druhá světová válka se pro spojence nevyvíjí příliš dobře. Pokud se chtějí ubránit Hitlerovi, je zoufale zapotřebí nějaká nová zbraň. V Cambridgi požádá americký zpravodajský důstojník geniálního profesora historie Toma Wildea, aby mu pomohl propašovat záhadný balíček z nacistického Německa – něco tak tajného, že dokonce ani Hitler sám o existenci této věci neví. Tom Wilde ale brzy zjistí šokující pravdu o tomto „balíčku“ a pochopí, proč se nacisté nezastaví před ničím, jen aby zabránili tomu, aby opustil Německo

But the conspirators have been infiltrated by Sir Francis Walsingham's top intelligencer, John Shakespeare. Shakespeare, however, is torn: the woman he loves stands accused of murder. In a desperate race against time he must save her from the noose and the realm from treachery. And then it dawns that both investigations are inextricably linked - by corruption very close to the seat of power . . .
