		But Cletus is also an OSS (CIA precursor) agent, and a chance meeting with Major Hans-Peter von Wachstein, a Nazi pilot attached to the German embassy, results in their friendship.
		Peter feeds secrets to Cletus in exchange for help in moving Peter's family's funds to Argentina, where they hope to live after the war that he and his father (a close aide to the Fuhrer) believe is wrong and already lost.
		As a piece of historical fiction, the novel brought interesting insights into the involvement of Argentina with Germany during WWII; however, the detail of many evil German officers, their blind devotion to The Fuhrer, and the litany of what officer reported to whom, and their rank and titles, etc. was boring beyond belief.
