Acerca de este libro electrónico
A historical mystery spanning four decades and three continents, The Seventh Royale takes readers into the high-stakes world of luxury automobiles, and ingeniously plaits fact and fiction into an ever-tightening cable of suspense
Blending history with fiction, The Seventh Royale finds the “lost” Bugatti of history—the fulcrum of a plot that connects Grand Prix champion and WWII war prisoner Elio Cezale and his rescuer Alan Escher with Hitler’s Berlin and the Mormons of Salt Lake City. Photographer Escher is the narrator of this fast-paced thriller, and in unraveling the mystery of Cezale’s death, he is propelled into an international collectors’ world of luxury cars—and onto a collision course with Cezale’s secret past, a past that reaches back to Hitler himself.
