From acclaimed author Henning Boëtius comes this powerful tale of a doomed airship and one man"s attempt to resurrect his life from its ashes. It is 1947-ten years after the zeppelin Hindenburg burst into flames over Lakehurst, New Jersey, in one of the twentieth century"s most spectacular catastrophes. An alleged representative of world peace and "infallible" German technology, the Hindenburg was a great floating palace almost three football fields long-but to many it was also a hated symbol of the Nazi regime. Suspecting sabotage, one scarred survivor refuses to believe that his life was shattered by a so-called accident. Still obsessed with the cause of the crash, Birger Lund will place himself at risk to uncover the plot behind the explosion-in the hope that the truth will make him whole again...
