In 1945 the children of the Third Reich were secretly hidden all over the world—to be concealed until the 1970s when they would come of age. Then the most elaborate plans and $780 million in a Swiss bank would be waiting. There would even be an unsuspecting outsider to set the plan into action. That outsider is Noel Holcroft, the American son of a high-ranking Nazi. He's just been shown an amazing document, "The Holcroft Covenant." If he signs, it will be his own death warrant and a devastating security of the world.

Review of 'The Holcroft Covenant' on 'Goodreads'

1 star

This is a book that has not aged well. I'm sorting out some old books and gave this a rerun as I'd remembered it being gripping enough twenty odd years ago. Not sure why I bothered! Story is far fetched and I found it hard to suspend my disbelief and get into the flow. There was also this odd italicising of words for emphasis, which just grated on my nerves. Persevered to the end out of sheer bloody mindedness.
