Synopsis

At the zenith of Nazi conquests, Deputy F¼hrer Rudolph Hess parachutes into Scotland. He is captured; meets with the Duke of Hamilton, first cousin of King George; then is spirited away to the Tower of London, where he clandestinely meets with British Royalty at Buckingham Palace. Then Winston Churchill lowers a curtain of silence over the whole event. It remains in secrecy for four decades until… Network anchorman Scott Reynolds travels incognito to Germany and meets with ex-SS Colonel Willi Bremmer. Bremmer has concocted an audacious scheme for the escape of Hess from Spandau Prison in Berlin. At a Swiss hideaway, Reynolds videotapes Hess’ incredible account, while the British Secret Service pulls out all the stops to find him. No wonder. Hess reveals a tale of scandal and deceit implicating the highest stratum of British Royalty. Reynolds’ problem now is to get the videotape back to America for a blockbuster TV documentary—so overwhelming it could bring down the Royal House. Blackmail, threats, even murder lie in the way.
