In 1806 Prussia suffers the crushing defeat of Jena and Auerstedt. Napoleon's rise seems unstoppable. But resistance is stirring in Germany... Whether as the saviour of Queen Luise, as a supporter of Clausewitz or as a volunteer in Lützow's "wild hunt" - Carl von Schack and his son Geoffroy are right in the middle of the action in the fight for German freedom.
In his comprehensive work of fiction, historian and former officer Heiger Ostertag devotes himself to moving periods in German history and brings them to life before the reader.
