Skylar Malone (Johann Hiedler) has come a long way from his birthplace in Berlin and childhood in the hills of Argentina and Paraguay. Years have passed. A lifetime. As a Private Investigator who has lived with amnesia in America for the past ten years, and who is now in pursuit of a serial killer; he encounters dark flashes of his past. Flashes that stagger him with sobering recollections of his true identity.

Why scenes of a flaming swastika prey on his mind; why he is constantly besieged with reminders that he wears the mask of Hitler; he does not know. Attempting to dismiss these uncertain recollections, Malone soon finds himself espousing viewpoints and inclinations that once stirred the world to war.

While closing in on the killer who has been terrorizing California’s East Bay, Malone’s memory comes sweeping across his mind with the truth of who he is – Johann Hiedler, son of Adolph Hitler and Eva Braun. His life unravels before him when confronted by the grouping of the three most significant people in his life: Theresa Meister, Bishop Hudal, and Valeri Zhukov.

Theresa Meister, his true love, now a young woman, was the girl he met as a young man in Paraguay. Bishop Hudal, nephew of the Vatican’s Bishop Hudal who aided the escape of many Nazis via the Underground Railroad, is the man Hiedler recruited in Paraguay toward resurrecting his father’s quest. Valeri Zhukov, son the Russian General who commanded the assault on Hitler’s Berlin bunker, is now the prime target of the East Bay killer; the man Hiedler intends to personally eliminate in avenging his father’s death.

From the moment his memory returns; Malone, now Hiedler, focuses the entire thrust of his life on reawakening the National Socialist campaign with Theresa Meister by his side. That thrust leads to the portent of things to come, a resurgence of the Nazi Regime in modern America.
