       DEDICATION

       To my parents and my sisterThank you for everything

       If I have seen further, it is by standing on the shoulders of giants.Sir Isaac Newton, Letter to Hooke, 1675

       HISTORICAL BACKGROUND

      This novel is inspired by the incredible true story of the Hungarian Gold Train and its desperate journey across a ravaged continent in the dying days of the Second World War. When it was eventually discovered by US troops in a remote Austrian tunnel, it was found to contain several billion dollars’ worth of stolen gold, art and other treasures.

      All descriptions and background information provided on works of art, artists, thefts, architecture, Nazi uniforms, rituals and objects are similarly accurate. Descriptions of the workings of the Enigma machine have been simplified.
