Since the fall of Britain, Germany’s empire stretches across the whole of Europe. Daniel Muller is a triumph of the German system: the son of a war hero, he was orphaned at the age of two in one of the last Russian air raids over Berlin. Plucked from the rubble of a bunker, he was sent off to one of the special academies set up to train the brightest and best of German youth. Now 15, and one of the academy’s top cadets, he is destined for a golden future. Then his world implodes.Framed for a crime he never committed, he stumbles across a birth certificate that suggests that he was actually born in England. He knows that he faces the shame of being expelled from the Academy if he stays, and with it, the virtual death sentence of a posting to the Russian front. He decides instead to flee to England with the forced help of an English guest worker who works at the Academy.Together they make their way to occupied London and Daniel begins the search for who he really is, a search that masks a terrible secret and, ultimately, a terrible choice that he must make.
