The Allied stranglehold on Berlin is tightening; every day the escape corridor out of the city is narrowing. In the ruins of Berlin Ernst Scholler, a man of endless ingenuity with a ruthless sense of self-preservation, contrives to escape. Although he is the Reich Special Investigator he is ready to bargain for his life. The man with whom the bargain must be made is Allen Dulles, director of the OSS in Switzerland and President Roosevelt's personal representative. Dulles brings to the business of intelligence a sense of mission that extends far beyond the present conflict; he already envisages the next "mortal enemy" and the next war. With chilling pragmatism, he sees that the longer the German surrender is delayed, the deeper will be the Russian penetration of Europe. To stop that he is ready to talk to the Devil himself. -- Scholler and Dulles, both professional and practical men, arrive at an arrangement. But the bargain, struck in Berne, requires supervision from within and an American agent has to be sent into Berlin. The only person available is Howard Elliott, a young code clerk on Dulles's staff. Elliott accompanies Scholler to Berlin on a horrendous journey through a defeated Germany. Posing as Scholler's assistant, he gains entry into the Gestapo headquarters in the Prinz Albrechtstrasse. For several nightmarish days Elliott becomes the Special Investigator's henchman and accomplice. Bound to each other by self-interest, a strange relationship develops between the two, and the young American begins to learn the rules which govern survival in such a world. --- Thomas Wiseman has written a novel within a framework of historical events; the fictional element is introduced at those points where history has no further information to offer and imagination must fill the blanks. The Day Before Sunrise is a masterly piece of story telling, re-creating in meticulous detail the last terrible days of the Third Reich.". Seller Inventory # 41263
