Synopsis
How much of history is an illusion? Did the Third Reich's most notorious Nazi, Heinrich Himmler, really take his own life at the end of the Second World War? A fifty-year-old manuscript, written by Erich Koch, the young officer who accompanied Himmler, reveals that the Reichsfuhrer of the SS in fact survived and escaped to England.
As Himmler realises that Germany's defeat is inevitable, he lays his clever, ruthless plans, meticulously working out every detail for his escape, and ensuring that he covers his tracks. Isherwood fleshes out Koch's manuscript to reveal how a double, made to look even more like Himmler by the evil Dr. Josef Mengele, is the one who takes the cyanide capsule.
Safely brought to England with his innocent comrade, Erich Koch, Himmler is met by a local smallholder of German origin. But how long will Himmler be content to raise chickens and pigs? How long will it be before Erich realises the true past of his comrade? And how long can they hide from the determined and resourceful Nazi-hunters?
