The First Nazi

Munich. September 1931.
Detective Inspector Thomas Bauer is called to Adolph Hitler’s home at Prinzregentenplatz 16 to investigate a “death by suspicious circumstances.” The victim is Angela “Geli” Raubal, a twenty-three-year-old woman, dead from a gunshot wound to the chest. Geli was the Führer’s companion—and his half-niece. A suicide, they’re told. When Bauer tries to investigate, he’s blocked by the full and growing might of the Nazi party. 

Chicago. Present Day. 
Eleanor Robbins, a professor of history at the University of Chicago, receives a dossier documenting Hitler’s rise to power—and a daring plot to stop him. Armed with two eye-opening journals kept by people close to the Führer’s inner circle, the professor travels to Europe to seek more answers and finds her own investigation coming under surveillance.

Berlin. December 1941. 
Hitler declares war on the United States, declaring himself the head of the world’s strongest army. But lethal threats are closer than he realizes. Bauer dedicates himself to fighting the Nazi war machine, to infiltrating the Reich Chancellor’s protectors and ending his grisly reign. 

Washington, D.C. Present Day. 
The historian always wants more, more, more. More evidence. More data. More proof. Proof that Hitler was not only responsible for the deaths of millions, but that he committed murder with his own hands. The world’s First Nazi has been condemned in courts of law and ethics. Eleanor Robbins risks her life to finish the work Detective Inspector Thomas Bauer started—stopping evil at its hidden source.
