Synopsis: Nazi Germany has been crushed, but is the war really over?Klara, Hitler&’s personal cook, swears she glimpsed him fleeing the Berlin bunker via a secret tunnel.The world needs undeniable proof of the Fuhrer&’s death, but it&’s not that simple. While Allied intelligence agents scour Europe to find such proof, and a Hitler double – &‘the Wolf&’ – lays a false trail across two continents, the real Hitler hides out in a Polish monastery, desperate to find his gold train so he can fund the Fourth Reich. Klara, already pregnant with Martin Bormann&’s child, is one of the countless women brutally raped as Russian forces take Berlin. She miscarries and can&’t help wondering if she will ever be free of the war&’s burden. Meanwhile, her sister Natalka is working with the Polish government, tracking down and executing Nazi fugitives. She locates Klara and recruits her to help track Hitler: as his former cook, Klara can infiltrate his inner circle. They find Hitler&’s hideout via a tip-off. Klara makes tentative contact: the Fuhrer, weakened and isolated, is thrilled to have her back as his cook – and companion. He feels no threat from her but – profoundly traumatised by the war, the death camps, the rape and miscarriage – Klara can take no more. Following a defining act of conscience, she gains closure at last, for both herself and the crippled world. But one final twist awaits, revealing a future she couldn&’t possibly have imagined!
