A detective story of the anti-Hitler conspiracy in Germany - from the emergence of the Third Reich to the end of World War II.
In 1938, it became clear to Hitler’s entourage: Europe was on the verge of a big war. Military officials of the Wehrmacht and members of the Abwehr gather around themselves all the lawyers, diplomats and intellectuals dissatisfied with the regime. A loose network of resistance members, nicknamed the “Black Chapel” by the Gestapo, is doing everything to prevent bloodshed and undermine the Third Reich from within: informing the Allies about troop movements, supplying disinformation to the Nazi leadership, planning a plot to assassinate Adolf Hitler. Notable members of the anti-Hitler cell included Colonel Hans Oster, theologian Dietrich Bonhoeffer and his son-in-law Hans von Dohnanyi, a staff member of the Abwehr, Germany's military intelligence service. As the war drags on, the conspiracy expands: the Black Chapel, which was looking for a way to remove Hitler and implement a plan to seize power, is supported by the commander-in-chief and the chief of the general staff. The culmination is Operation Valkyrie, a failed assassination attempt on Hitler on July 20, 1944. The explosion of the bomb, which was carried into the meeting in a briefcase, barely injures Hitler - which means inevitable death for all the conspirators. Fascinating and action-packed, The Black Chapel is a story about people who are willing to risk their lives to turn away from the crazy path their country has embarked on.
