On 20 July 1944, a failed attempt to assassinate Adolf Hitler unleashes a brutal purge across the collapsing Third Reich. As the Gestapo hunts for enemies real and imagined, Josef Wagner, once a powerful Nazi Gauleiter, is swept into a web of suspicion and vengeance.
From his rise as a regional powerbroker who helped shape Nazi rule and early deportation policies, to his growing isolation over faith, independence, and political rivalries, Wagner’s journey reveals the inner fractures of a regime devouring its own.
Arrested after his name appears on a list linked to the July Plot, Wagner disappears into the secret prisons of Berlin, where his fate unfolds amid the final days of Nazi Germany.
