Dutch diplomat Oscar Verschuur has been posted to neutral Switzerland. His family is spread across Europe. His wife Kate works as a nurse in London and their daughter Emma is living in Berlin with her husband Carl, a \u2018good\u2019 German who works at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.\nBriefly reunited with her father in a restaurant in Geneva, Emma drops a bombshell. A date and a codename, and the fate of nations is placed in Verschuur\u2019s hands: June 22, Barbarossa.\nWhat should he do? Warn the world, or put his daughter\u2019s safety first?
