In 1933 Berlin, William E. Dodd becomes America's first ambassador to Hitler's Germany, accompanied by his wife, son, and vibrant daughter, Martha. Initially captivated by the allure of the Third Reich and its young men, Martha becomes involved in a series of affairs, including one with Rudolf Diels, the chief of the Gestapo. However, as evidence of Jewish persecution surfaces, her father expresses his concerns to a largely indifferent State Department. Dodd witnesses the alarming rise of anti-Semitic violence, press censorship, and the emergence of oppressive laws. As the year progresses, the Dodds navigate a landscape filled with excitement, intrigue, and ultimately horror, culminating in a shocking display of violence that reveals Hitler's true ambitions. The narrative captures the tense atmosphere of the time, featuring vivid portrayals of figures like the bizarre Göring and the charming yet sinister Goebbels. This account offers a compelling, firsthand perspective on the unfolding events, highlighting the complexities of an era that failed to recognize the impending threat posed by Hitler until it was too late, leaving Europe engulfed in bloodshed and terror.
