When David Walker witnesses a mysterious woman receive a secret package from a stranger, he makes the fateful decision to follow her. He has no idea that he is about to walk into a multilayered conspiracy that goes back decades...back to World War II and the Nazi regime.
What David doesn't realize is that this woman had been on a personal mission to retrieve artwork that was stolen from her family by the Nazis during the war. What she unearthed on her quest-a list of mysterious bank accounts-accounts that threaten to reveal the CIA's darkest secret-would make her a marked woman.
Will David be able to escape the eyes of the CIA, which has been watching him longer than he could ever have imagined? Will he manage to expose the biggest conspiracy of the twentieth century?
David knows too much, and to some of the most powerful people on Earth, he is seen as only one thing: a dangerous loose end.
A Loose End is a riveting thriller with momentous historical vision. Written with stunning insight into the complex cog that was World War II, this fast-paced novel of political conspiracy will change the way you look at the Second World War-and Hitler-forever.
