| Description: | Select Guide Rating Berlin, July 1944, a few weeks before the attempted assassination of Hitler by Claus von Stauffenberg. Bora is ordered to investigate the murder of a dazzling clairvoyant, a major star since the days of the Weimar Republic, with deep connections to those in power. But there is more at stake: Bora and Stauffenberg inevitably meet. Berlin, July 1944, a few weeks before the attempted assassination of Hitler by Claus von Stauffenberg and other conspirators. Bora has been called back from the Italian Front to investigate the murder of a dazzling clairvoyant with Nazi connections. Soon Bora realises that there is much more at stake than meets the eye. Are the plotters a group of heroes devoted to the salvation of Germany at the cost of their own lives, or a bunch of opportunists compromised from the beginning with the Nazi regime and now looking for a new virginity in the eyes of the Western Allies and Stalinist Russia? |
