Description

Hilda Campbell was born in the north of Scotland in 1889.

She married German national Dr Willy Buttner Richter in 1912.

They honeymooned in Scotland and returned to settle in Hamburg.

Dr Richter died in 1938. After visiting her ailing parents, Hilda returned to Germany just before the Second World War began.

She became a double agent, controlled by Gerhardt Eicke in Germany and Lawrence Thornton in Britain.

How could she cope under such strain, and with her son Otto in the German Army?

Nor did she expect her evidence to be so cruelly challenged at theNuremberg Trials.

Learn of her post-war life, which took her abroad as a British Ambassador's wife.

This is an extraordinary story based on the life of the author's great aunt, Hilda.

The book includes several authentic accounts.
