Description

This is a real-life story about the theft of a fabulous treasure - the German national gold and foreign currency reserves worth some u2,500,000,000 at the time of the original investigation - which disappeared in transit following the Nazi collapse in 1945. It is also the story of a mystery and a cover-up which threatened to involve the US Army in Germany, the Pentagon and the Department of the Army in a scandal which predated Watergate by nearly 30 years."
