#1 - The Odessa File
Can you forgive the past?

It's 1963 and a young German reporter has been assigned the suicide of a holocaust survivor. The news story seems straighforward, this is a tragic insight into one man's suffering. But a long hidden secret is discovered in the pages of the dead man's diary.

What follows is life-and-death hunt for a notorious former concentration camp-commander, a man responsible for the deaths of thousands, a man as yet unpunished.
#2 - The Revenge of Odessa
#2 - The Revenge of Odessa
Their greatest weapon is fear…

Years after the events of The Odessa File, Peter Miller’s grandson, Georg, a successful podcaster living in Berlin, stumbles across evidence that the Odessa – a Nazi network whose goal is to return the Nazis to power and resume their murderous regime – has resurfaced.

Georg picks up their trail and charts an organisation so insidious that it seems unstoppable. Hunted by the Odessa’s agents, he learns that a series of recent terrorist atrocities are just the first step on their path to retribution. And their next attack could change the course of history.

The race for answers takes Georg across continents, from the forests of Germany to the heart of Washington and into the hallowed halls of the White House itself. There, he finds a new generation of Nazis, on the brink of obtaining world power, who won’t stop until democracy falls.
