Product Description

Summer 1940:

Britain stands alone; its army smashed by the German blitzkrieg in France; the survivors barely rescued from the beaches of Dunkirk. In London, Winston Churchill remains defiant, trying desperately to rally the nation, determined to resist the Nazi invasion.

But not all in the cabinet share his view. Some believe there is no option but to seek a deal with Hitler.

Twenty miles away the Nazi armies stand ready. There are signs that Britain is weakening. The RAF has almost disappeared; there are reports of mutinies in the Royal Navy, peace marches, hints of disloyalty involving the Duke of Windsor. Britain is close to collapse.

Then the Nazis receive a message from London. An unknown group emerges and makes contact, seeking talks.

Who are these 'Realists'? Is there even a traitor inside the cabinet?

Who has sent an An Invitation to Hitler?
