In his bestselling debut, Christopher Reich captivated readers with a classic of modern suspense. He returns with an intricately plotted tale set in post-World War II Germany, blending explosive action with a beautifully textured narrative. In July 1945, Devlin Judge, an American lawyer and former NYPD detective, is in Europe for the International Military Tribunal to prosecute Nazi war criminals. However, he has a personal mission: to find Erich Seyss, the Nazi responsible for his brother's death. Seyss, an elite SS member and former Olympic sprinter known as the White Lion, has just escaped from an American POW camp. Fueled by vengeance, Judge embarks on a relentless pursuit of Seyss, facing numerous dangers from those intent on thwarting him. He recruits Ingrid Bach, the daughter of a powerful Nazi and Seyss's former fiancée, to help him navigate the chaos of a ravaged nation. As Judge hunts for Seyss, he uncovers a dark conspiracy that threatens not only his life but the future of Europe itself. Rich in historical detail and brilliantly atmospheric, this novel offers a gripping narrative that keeps readers on the edge of their seats.
