Germany, 1944. On the 10th anniversary of the Night of the Long Knives, Adolf Hitler and his private secretary Bormann return for a dinner to the lakeside resort hotel where Hitler arrested his old friend Ro'hm. Hitler's erratic behaviour is losing him support in the Nazi party; Bormann is the puppet master. They both believe an assassination attempt on the Fuhrer to be imminent. Hitler is remembering his niece, Geli; she was his closest confidante until her 'suicide' in 1931. Rumours of a scandalous affair still swirl; as well as claims of obscene drawings being passed around Munich, alleged to be of Geli by Hitler - political dynamite in the wrong hands. But as Hitler announces he wants to retrieve the pictures from the safe, Bormann finds they aren't there. Their whereabouts become a matter of urgency.
