On a dark night in May, 1945, a pregnant woman is spirited out of Europe on a U-boat. Now, more than five decades later, proof has been found by White House aide Ted Scott that the silent but central architect of the resurgence of neo-Nazism in the United States is Adolf Hitlers daughter. Sharon Franklin, an ambitious, attractive and nationally known TV anchorwoman. She is rumored to have been the bedmate of the Secretary of State; Congresswoman Leona Crawford Gordon, ruthless, and a strong contender to become the first woman president or vice president of the United States; and Susan Benedict, wife of the incumbent vice president. In a dangerous and explosive race against time, Ted Scott travels back to that dark night in 1945 to discover who is HITLERS DAUGHTER?
It was a serviceable race against time thriller with perhaps too much showing of emotion and exclamation points. It even had a pretty high body count.
Unfortunately, it kind of lost it when it decided to be a twist novel and let evil win, basically knocking off the entire cast of good guys in a single epilogue chapter (though I think one ally escapes but is never addressed). It would have been okay if it seemed like it was subtly building towards that, but it was like nope, everyone is dead!
Passable, but ultimately forgettable.

I enjoy schlock as much as the next person, but this was almost laughably bad on every level: characterization, plot, you name it. I picked this up at a used book sale and would like both my Saturday afternoon and my 50 cents back.
