Overview

La novela inspirada en la vida de Margot Wölk, catadora del Führer. ¿Hitler se suicidó o fue asesinado por uno de sus más cercanos colaboradores? Basándose en la estremecedora historia de Margot Wölk, V. S. Alexander ha escrito un absorbente thriller que pone en duda lo que sabemos sobre la muerte del Führer. Cuando los bombardeos de los Aliados comienzan a caer sobre Berlín, los padres de Magda deciden enviarla con sus tíos a las montañas, donde le consiguen un trabajo en el Berghof, el lugar de descanso de Hitler. Tras una serie de rigurosos exámenes físicos y mentales, es asignada a la cocina. ¿Su labor? Formará parte del grupo de mujeres dedicadas a catar los alimentos del Führer para asegurarse de que no estén envenenados. En medio de la belleza de los Alpes bávaros, poco a poco Magda se olvida de los horrores de la guerra y del peligro que arrastra su nuevo trabajo. Sin embargo esta aparente calma se esfumará cuando conozca al capitán de las SS Karl Weber, un conspirador que intenta convencerla de que el Führer debe morir y ella es la pieza más importante de un complot que pondrá a prueba su inteligencia y lealtad. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Inspired by the life of Margot Wölk, Hitler's food taster. Did Hitler commit suicide, or was he murdered by one of his closest collaborators? Based on the harrowing story of Margot Wölk, V.S. Alexander has crafted a gripping thriller that challenges what we know about the Führer's death. As Allied bombings begin to rain down on Berlin, Magda's parents send her to the mountains to stay with her uncles, who secure her a job at the Berghof, Hitler's retreat. After a series of rigorous physical and mental exams, she is assigned to the kitchen. Her task? To join the group of women dedicated to tasting the Führer's food to ensure it isn't poisoned. Amid the beauty of the Bavarian Alps, Magda gradually forgets the horrors of war and the danger of her new job. However, this apparent calm is shattered when she meets SS Captain Karl Weber, a conspirator who tries to convince her that the Führer must die and that she is the key piece in a plot that will test her intelligence and loyalty.
