Perfect for fans of Robert Harris’s Munich and The Fatherland

Stag Maguire, a burnt-out journalist hardly able to prop himself up in the wake of tragedy, agrees to help a friend move. They find an urgent message - HELP ME - written on a piece of silk tacked behind a long-forgotten portrait. The message from an address in Berlin is urgent, though it had to have been written pre-World War II. Curious, Stag and his friend begin to research the address and whomever might have written the message. They trace the address to an apartment, a sealed time capsule that has not been lived in since 1942.

And from one phone call to that apartment, the men unleash a nefarious plot and brutal security forces long thought vanquished. Events begin to cascade without mercy, and Stag - a broken man from the Midwest - finds himself pitted against a vestige of the Third Reich with powerful forces ensuring the propagation of Heydrich’s infamous SD - the Nazis' intelligence agency - in today’s world.

Will ordinary man Stag Maguire prevail in his lone stand against evil?

Critic reviews

“The tension ratchets up degree by degree, in a plot similar to speeding down a slalom course with all its speed, twists, and turns. A thriller reader’s delight from beginning to end.” (Steve Berry, New York Times best-selling author)

The story is your basic stock thriller with bits of history thrown in. It is feels like the authors first book. This means you will find the standard thriller tropes, and inconsistencies. That said the narrator makes the characters come to life as the author did not. Each character is distinct and the only time I had trouble following was due to the chapters blending together. I would definitely get another book read by Mr. Hawkins.

Awsome narration, very basic story

This is a very intriguing audiobook. Weaves fact and fiction together into one blended roller coaster ride of a story. I can honestly say that this could be turned into a great movie one day. The characters of this book are definitely flawed but you never know who you should and should not be rooting for. Once all the plot lines come together the ending is very very satisfying. The author does a great job of moving back-and-forth through time from the 1940s to present day. They do this through letters and journal entries. This was my first audiobook by this narrator and he did a great job. His pacing and timing adds tension to those Key moments throughout the book. He offers us many different accents and does male as well as female voices very nicely. I really enjoyed this book. I received a free copy of this audiobook from audiobook boom in exchange for an honest review. This in no way affected my opinion of this book.

This book was outside of my normal genres, but I am glad I branched out! A thriller with a historical, captivating storyline that builds a bridge between past and present.

Thought-provoking and exciting!

This offering, well narrated by Ian Hawkins, has a little bit of everything. It would be a bit of a spoiler to run through all the various historical references and tie-ins here, but rest assured there is something for everyone here. Nazis, spies, conspiracies..that is just the start! This combination of author/performer could turn into quite the pairing. I was a bit skeptical when I first started the listen, but it quickly drew me in. Well recommended!

A fun little noir romp into a past often willfully forgotten. The protagonist is realistically flawed and never turns into an action hero. The antagonists are amoral and evil in a way that is believable of the economic elite. The voice acting is enjoyable and never detracts from the experience.

My only real gripe is the addition of an obvious Donald Trump as another bad guy in the rogues gallery. The presentation was so caricatured that it strained my suspension of disbelief. It was really the only lazy writing in an otherwise thoroughly enjoyable book.

3 stars.

A thriller based on one of the main characters orchestrating concentration camps and other ideas in the SS to achieve The third Reich.

I was initially invested in the story. However, the narrator was flat from beginning to end and, after the first part, did not vary their tone much, which meant prosody did not catch your attention.

Regarding the story, I found it interesting, but too long. 61 chapters and 9 hours in what could have been, for my taste, about 40. Many of the events taking place did not make much sense to me, such as cocaine being introduced into the story or not much happening at the end with the story the main character was supposed to have brought into light.

I think finding Himmler's portrait, which was supposed to have belonged to a family for several generations and a brief message hidden in it was forced just to justify the investigation to come.

To conclude, even though I enjoyed the general idea and some connections made along the story, I believe there are many aspects to be improved.

I was pretty intrigued by the summary but ultimately the story fell flat for me. There was a lot of bad language, for me this always comes off lazy which proved to be correct further into the story. I found the history side really interesting and some of the best parts of the story but then dialogue didn't always feel very natural and the overly coincidental or lucky moments just felt like too much. Then it got very political by bringing Donald Trump in as a bad guy... it was just overly obvious. This is geared for adults primarily due to language and writing style. The narrator did a decent job although at times went a bit monotone and some of his accents were a bit off.
