It's May 1940 and the German Armies are racing across Belgium in an attempt to trap the Allies and destroy them. But the Fuhrer, Adolf Hitler, is nervous that the resounding success of his forces will invite a counterattack. Rumors are flying he's about to issue a stop order to his panzers and let the Luftwaffe finish off the British. In this "what if," General Guderian never receives those orders and the trap is completed. The British evacuation at Dunkirk never happens. Using historical facts, the author weaves this alternative history through the eyes of the Mueller family as they live out a very different ending to World War II.
