In early 1937, the British monarchy was in utter chaos: the previous king, Edward VIII, had abdicated, leaving his terrified brother, Bertie, to become George VI. While awaiting a decree allowing him to marry his beloved Wallis Simpson, Edward showed an interest in Adolf Hitler's plans and... nearly betrayed his country. While double agents and Nazi spies swarmed the corridors of Buckingham Palace, the only person the king could trust was his Prime Minister, Winston Churchill.

This book tells the previously untold story of World War II in Britain and America, casting a new light on the royal family, their complex relationships, and the events that rocked the international press. How did this feuding, dysfunctional family put their differences aside and unite to help win the greatest conflict of their lives? Alexander Larman, author of "Corona Crisis," now describes the life of the Windsor family as they fought Germany—and each other.
