SYNOPSIS
Nazi-occupied Budapest, winter 1944. The Russians are smashing through
the German lines. Miklos Farkas breaks out of the Jewish ghetto
to find food - at the Nazis’ headquarters. There he is handed
a stolen copy of The Budapest Protocol, detailing
the Nazis post-war plans. Miklos knows it must stay hidden for ever
if he is to stay alive.
The book jumps
to present day Budapest. As the European Union launches the election
campaign for the first President of Europe, Miklos Farkas is brutally
murdered. His journalist grandson Alex buries his grief to track
down the killers. He soon unravels a chilling conspiracy rooted
in the dying days of the Third Reich, one that will ensure Nazi
economic domination of Europe - and a plan for a new Gypsy Holocaust.
The hunt is on for The Budapest Protocol.
Alex is soon
drawn deeper into a deadly web of intrigue and power play, a game
played for the highest stakes: the very future of Europe. But Alex
too is haunted. He must battle his own demons as he uncovers a shadowy
alliance that the world thought had been defeated for good. Powerful,
controversial and thought-provoking, The Budapest Protocol
is a journey into Europe's hidden heart of darkness... |
