Two envelopes. Two holocaust survivors. Two anonymous bearer bonds - each worth one million pounds. Corporate forensic investigator Cydney Granger, with help from beyond the grave, enters a world previously unknown to her to unravel the truth behind a web of secrets, lies, corruption, blackmail, and hidden Nazi loot, as new horrors of the Third Reich come to light.

Still struggling to come to terms with the apparent death of her husband five years' earlier, Captain Steve Granger, Cydney puts her personal feelings to one side and is determined to bring to justice to an escaped Nazi criminal, Adolf Weissmuller, living under the assumed name of Albert Whiteman, whose son is about to run for the US presidency. Can Albert ever make amends for his crimes against humanity, or are some actions beyond forgiveness?

Will Cydney, along with her trusted and tough protector, former sergeant Sean O'Connell, also uncover the truth surrounding her husband?

The consequences of Cydney's investigations, stretching back before WWII, are far reaching, with the potential to bring down a banking dynasty, as she faces insurmountable odds from which there is only one final solution.

The dramatic follow-up to The Shadows Behind Her Smile, a compelling debut which takes the listener from the heart of Cydney's corporate world, to the ruins of war-torn Damascus, and where men will stop at nothing to achieve their goals.
