Description
Adolf Hitler had fourteen female tasters who sampled every dish put on his table. Taste of Evil is the fictionalized story of one of those women. We follow the life of one of those tasters as she becomes more deeply involved in Hitlers inner circle, and we discover the revelation of her own hidden past, which culminates in her determination to poison Hitler. Gretchen von Bismarck, a beautiful young German girl from an aristocratic family, was endowed with an extraordinary sense of taste and smell. She is recruited into Hitlers inner circle and becomes a trusted member of Hitlers tasters. Through her architect father, she becomes associated with Albert Speer, Hitlers architect and Minister of Armaments and War Production. She also becomes aware of the Holocaust and her own previously unknown Jewish background. With the help of her young lover, Kurt Andorfer Albert Speers nephew and leader of Berlins Hitler Youth Movement she determines that she will poison Hitler. The plot takes us through the attempted assassination of Hitler in July 1944 at the Wolfs Lair, as witnessed by Gretchen, her planning and execution of the scheme to poison Hitler and Eva Braun on April 30th, 1945 in Hitlers bunker in Berlin, and her own attempt to survive and more! Taste of Evil is thoroughly researched and historically accurate. It contains excerpts from important documents, reports and speeches of the period, some of which are not well known; production and damage reports to Albert Speer; text of a key speech by Himmler; quotes from important directives; slave labour reports; quotes from BBC and German radio broadcast, and more.
