| Synopsis: |
It's 1939 and Private Investigator Fintan Dunne is lured into a case with connections that stretch beyond the New York crime scene to Nazi Germany. Meanwhile plans for a military coup are forming in Berlin. Admiral Canaris, head of Military Intelligence, must choose between violating every value he holds as an officer, or betraying the plotters to the Gestapo and forsaking the country's last hope to avert utter destruction. With Hitler's crimes lauded as a programme of racial cleansing at the vanguard of a eugenics movement launched in the United States and Britain, the 'hour of the cat' looms and every German conscience must make a choice. "Hour of the Cat" is a stunning achievement; tautly suspenseful, hauntingly memorable, and brilliantly authentic. |
