Description
It’s Poland 1939, World War II is imminent, with the free world under siege!
Poland reels with the onslaught of the German Wehrmacht. In an effort to help Britain and crush Germany, Polish diplomats engineer the theft of Germany’s unique communications tool used for strategic battle plans during their march on Europe.
Three young men make a copy before putting the original device onto the last plane to England. Their mission is to take their valued Enigma Machine and learn its secrets. Wolfgang, Ferdek, and Tavius risk everything to make their way to Switzerland surrounded by the invading Soviet and German armies. Their objective is to decrypt the German battle plans and inform the right people. They face nearly overwhelming obstacles that test their relentless determination.
How much can one risk to secure their freedom?
