Summary
June 11, 1940 - where is Winston Churchill? A private aircraft takes off from a small town in central France, while Adolf Hitler, the would-be conqueror of Europe, prepares for a clandestine meeting near the Belgian border. For more than forty years the events of this day have been Britain's most closely guarded secret. Anyone who learns of them must die - with their file stamped: XPD - expedient demise. Now, Charles Stine, a former GI living in Southern California who got rich from Nazi gold and artifacts looted from their hiding place in Germany's Kaiseroda mine in 1945, has sensitive archival material documenting the meeting.
