After the last prisoner, “Number Seven” dies, Spandau Prison in Western Germany is destroyed, but not before a secret diary written by Prisoner Seven is discovered by a German policeman.

The Spandau Diary—what was in it? Why did the secret intelligence agencies of every major power want it? Why was a brave and beautiful woman kidnapped to get it? Why did a chain of deception and violent death lash out across the globe, from survivors of the Nazi past to warriors in this new conflict about to explode? Why did the world’s entire history of World War II have to be rewritten as the future hung over a nightmare abyss?

“Dick Hill brings diverse characters to life, including Thomas Horn, who might have been Rudolf Hess; police officers; Israeli spies; members of the South African military; and a host of others… brings the underlying mystery to the fore. Hill conveys the fear, ruthlessness, and single-mindedness of a dangerous secret society and those it hunts.

Warning: Here is the aftermath of war, uprisings, and vendetta, plus power-seeking in general. Be prepared for 26 hours of brutality and mayhem in detail. This is a real-time recording. If a chapter is REALLY messed up, report it, otherwise–too bad.
