Más información sobre el libro

As European capitals fell during 1940 and 1941, there swarmed to the Athene Palace, Bucharest's "Grand Hotel," diplomats, generals, Gestapo spies, and demi-mondaines from all over Europe. Arriving at the crowded Athene Palace on the day Paris fell in 1940, the American journalist Rosa Goldschmidt Waldeck watched for the seven months following all the events and international figures that made Romania Europe's last sensational hotbed of intrigue and color.
