Hitler's Son and
The Rosenberg Collection

A story about a merciless hunt – The hunt for The Rosenberg Collection …

A priceless collection of sixteen paintings is stolen ... On the back of the paintings is a code; the key to the SS’s secret numbered bank accounts in Switzerland – containing a vast fortune.

The hunt for The Rosenberg Collection (valued at $600 million) begins...

Michael Coe, a decorated Korean War hero and First Lieutenant in the American Special Forces, stationed in New York, has been sent to Paris on “vacation”. It is an unofficial gesture of gratitude for his significant contributions in Korea, but without much explanation. There had been similar rewards in the past but the fact that he should enjoy such good fortune ten years after the war perplexes him. Why Paris and why now? It would be easier to understand if he had been sent to serve in Vietnam.

There was no point pondering over it any longer. He was here – in Paris – far away from the hardships of the Special Forces.

As if sent by fate Coe meets the divine Cecilia, he falls hopelessly in love. But the divine Cecilia is in serious danger since her destiny has already been determined by the enemy.

About the same time the priceless Rosenberg Collection appears in an exhibition at a Paris museum backed by Texas billionaire and art patron, John Sunderland. Coincidence, or is it? Sunderland’s best friend, the former SS-member, and one of the men who stole The Rosenberg Collection in the first place, Gerhard Lorenz (now known as Pierre Damian), is also the museum curator.

Under the most suspicious of circumstances, a mystified Michael Coe is hired as the museum’s supervising guard.

After a number of attempted thefts and murder plots the paintings are put on a flight out of Paris destined for Buenos Aires and then on to San Juan, Puerto Rico, with a final stop at White Sands, about 50 miles southeast of the capital.

Present on the Puerto Rican island is war criminal Martin Bormann, a prisoner at White Sands to the Italian Mafia, imprisoned in a luxurious palatial compound owned by the feared Mafia boss Don Arnesto Alfieri, who together with the remorseless financier, Herte Reschko, had kidnapped him; Martin Bormann is the only living person who possesses the know-how to solve the code to the SS-fortune, that was once written down on the reverse side of the canvasses of the Rosenberg Collection.

Michael Coe accompanying the paintings on the first leg to Buenos Aires, is held back and, instead, is placed on a flight to New York where he is further pursued by the most ruthless Mafia. After a number of perilous incidents, Coe, now presumed dead, arrives injured to Puerto Rico, commissioned by Pierre Damian and John Sunderland to clean house.

This is no Sunday picnic, especially when you don’t know what it’s all about.

A significant number of individuals have to put their lives on the line during this outlandish adventure, including Michael Coe’s lover, Cecilia, who ends up being raped, crucified and poisoned. When Coe learns of her fate, he embarks on a merciless hunt for his lover’s murderer parallel with the hunt for the most valuable art collection in the world, which he had been assigned to safeguard. He is assisted by the sympathetic and tender-hearted Melaine Tanne, Herte Reschko’s beautiful lover and secretary who had chosen to switch allegiance and, together with Coe, risks her life like hunted prey. They fall madly in love which hardly makes matters easier since now the enemy has two targets to aim for ...

And now Hitler’s Son, Curt Raubal, enters, although he’s been there all the time, hovering like a menacing phantom!
