The Odessa File

The life-and-death hunt for a notorious Nazi criminal unfolds against a background of international arms deals. As the story leads to its final dramatic confrontation on a bleak winter's hill-top, the question every reader asked at the end of The Day of the Jackal will inevitably be asked again: Can this be fiction?

Fifty years after revealing the secrets of Odessa, an underground organization of former Nazis angling to regain power, Peter Miller is a retired legend in the journalism community. He's spent the last decade caring for his grandson Georg, after the death of his son and daughter in law in a tragic cara accident. Always suspecting that his own long list of enemies might have been behind his son’s death, Peter pulled back from his career to keep Georg safe. But he could do nothing to stop the young man from following in his footsteps.

Years after the events of The Odessa File, Peter Miller’s grandson, Georg, has become a successful podcaster. He thought that the Odessa – a Nazi network whose goal is to destroy the Jewish race – was disbanded a long time ago. But in a hospital in Berlin, he hears a whisper from a sick man that stills his heart: the Odessa has returned, more powerful than ever before.
