What if the Nazis had been able to decide on the end of the war? In the fall of 1943, Hitler and the Nazi high command know they cannot win the war. The time has come to find the least humiliating way out of the conflict. To do this, they consider all possible options: from negotiating with Americans and Soviets separately to assassinating Stalin, Churchill and Roosevelt, a triple assassination that would shock the world and could force the armistice. The next conference that the three great leaders will hold in Tehran may be the ideal occasion to strike the final blow. At that crucial moment Willard Mayer is dragged in, a professor of philosophy who, without prior notice, is recruited by Roosevelt and becomes one more pawn on a board in which a new world order will be decided. Philip Kerr devised in 2005 this magnificent spy novel around one of the key episodes of the Second World War, in which he also raised alternative historical scenarios.
Philip Ballantyne Kerr was a Scottish author, best known for his Bernie Gunther series of historical detective thrillers.
