Back Cover Reads: "Here is a man who renounced the throne rather than betray the woman he loved. Do you really imagine such a man could betray his country?" Hitler was certain that the Duke of Windsor would accept his offer to reule England after Germany had defeacted the country. And so he commissioned General Walter Schellenberg to carry out his plan to kidnap the royal couple should the Duke refuse. But Schellenberg was a most unusual Nazi. In fact, he was a most unusual madn. And from the moment he met Hannah Winter, a beautiful Jewish singer, he knew fate held something very special for them. Set against the turbulent wartie background of Berlin and Lisbon, "To Catch a King" is a 'Cracking good espionage tale..an altogether delightful tale of spies, counterspies, and the double agent.' "Pstterson's Best Novel to date, itis an excellent piece of intrigue..an all-but-forgotten chapter of recent history."
