During the winter of 1942, a lone British agent enters a top-secret Nazi facility inside a mountain in Austria. Searching for clues to the Third Reich’s nuclear weapons program, he discovers something far worse. A device with the potential to win the war for Germany and deliver almost instant world domination to Adolph Hitler.
In present-day Geneva, a professor of high-energy physics and chief of operations for one of CERN's particle accelerators mysteriously vanishes after a fishing trip.
In London, a researcher with the Institute of Historical Research is writing a book about Nazi Germany’s wonder-weapons. As a part of his work, he examines transcripts of tapes recorded at Farm Hall in Cambridge, where a group of Germany’s top nuclear scientists were detained after the end of the war. What he discovers hints at a coverup of just how close the Nazis came to developing a working atomic bomb. However, he also stumbles across information pointing to another much more ambitious and truly revolutionary project. Within days, the researcher is found dead.
His friend, historian and archaeologist Fiona Keane, turns to her partner and former active SAS soldier Andrew Sterling for help to find his killer and unravel the mystery of the secret Nazi nuclear research program. Before long, the duo find themselves at the centre of a conspiracy to develop and deploy a terrifying new technology that has laid buried deep inside a mountain since the end of World War 2.
