Spring, 1941: Hitler had most of Europe under his black boot, and his interest in England was waning when the Wehrmacht tore Johann Finke from his music and his family. Johann believed that the war would soon be over, but when, on June 22, 1941, he crossed the Russian border with the Sixth Army, the musician began a soul-destroying odyssey that would transform him into one of the most effective killers in the Wehrmacht Hunter units. His wife Barbara and his children were all that kept him alive; he must reach home; he must protect them from the horrors he was witnessing, and knew would reach Germany.
