'What right have I to happiness?' demanded Rudolf. 'My whole life is a lie.'
World War Two, a nation collapsing in on itself. As the modern city of Berlin dissolves into ruin, the need to survive dictates the colours of allegiance. Rudolf Klausener, dissident Nazi, must choose between his past and the Golden Salamanders, fighters against Nazism, knowing that the wrong choice will end in his annihilation.
But the Golden Salamanders are financed through a stolen Nazi fund and treachery and betrayal face them at every turn. Only Rudolf can prevent his former comrades from getting that money back and destroying the Golden Salamanders for good.
But Rudolf’s main concern is the safety of those he loves. Who can he trust? His close friend Josef Jünger, who calls himself the Fireghost and runs the Golden Salamanders with ruthless efficiency, or his sadistic former CO Hesel, who is prepared to destroy everything in his path to get the money back?
Can Rudolf survive and find the traitor, save himself, his family and the Golden Salamanders and discover the truth about his mysterious brother Thomas?
