What if the Germans had won World War Two? That's the question at the heart of this intriguing but finally frustrating thriller adapted from Robert Harris's best-selling novel. A well cast Rutger Hauer and Miranda Richardson star in the tortuous tale of an SS detective and an American journalist in a race against time to solve a murder and expose the deadly secret of the Third Reich. The acting, the atmosphere and the premise are strong enough to keep you watching to the climax.
