Hitler had two fortune tellers. One predicted his rise to power. The other aimed for his demise. Berlin, 1940- Edith Creutzen is 29-years-old and recently widowed when Hitler invites her to be his personal fortune teller. Terrified, she agrees. After all, how can she say no to the most dangerous man in the world But as she guides his days and builds his trust, she realises the extent of her power and joins forces with British Intelligence to misguide Hitler. But in her way lies Stefan, Hitler's right-hand man. Is he friend or foe, and what will he do if he finds out who she's really working for Armed with only love, courage and conviction, Edith sets out to change the course of history. But the price of success is high, and the closer she gets, the more she and her family stand to lose... Inspired by true events, this is the incredible story of one woman's fight to overturn Hitler.
