Hunting Hitler

Armed with 700 pages of recently declassified FBI documents, twenty-one year CIA veteran Bob Baer and war crimes investigator Dr. John Cencich begin a worldwide investigation into what happened to Adolf Hitler at the end of WWII. First stop on their hunt is a small town in Argentina with mysterious Nazi ties where an FBI report places Hitler residing three-and-a-half months after he was believed dead.

Tim Kennedy, US Army Special Forces, joins archeologists Philip Kiernan and Daniel Schavelzon to explore a mysterious Nazi complex deep in the jungles of Argentina. The three-building site yields a trove of Nazi artifacts as well as evidence of a structure of unexplained opulence. Lenny DePaul, former US Marshall, begins an investigation in Berlin to determine if Hitler could have faked his death.

Bob Baer and Dr. John Cencich expand their investigation as to how Adolf Hitler could have escaped Berlin under siege. One of the world’s foremost death claims investigator Steven Rambam and Nazi profiler and historian Gerrard Williams join Tim Kennedy to investigate a site that the FBI reported that Hitler used to disembark from a U-boat in Argentina. Lenny DePaul uncovers an escape route from Hitler’s bunker in Berlin to nearby Tempelhof Airport, where multiple Nazi airplanes took off under the cover of darkness.

Bob Baer and Dr. John Cencich continue their investigation into the death of Adolf Hitler by sending teams into three countries: Germany, Spain, and Argentina. Lenny DePaul and Sascha Keil find a never before discovered tunnel leading from Hitler’s bunker directly to Tempelhof Airport where Hitler’s personal plane awaited. Tim Kennedy joins a team of elite marine archeologists to search for a possible German U-Boat off the coast of Argentina. Lenny joins Gerrard Williams to investigate if Hitler could have arrived in Spain and remained hidden with the help of Spanish dictator Francisco Franco.

Bob Baer and Dr. John Cencich send Lenny DePaul and Gerrard Williams to Spain, where they investigate a remote monastery that could have been a hiding place for Nazis and uncover an eyewitness that places Hitler living within those very walls. Further investigation leads the team to a mysterious German plane landing and nearby Nazi communication devices deep in Spain. Tim Kennedy prepares to dive for what could be a sunken German U-Boat off the coast of Argentina. Ultimately the team is led to the Canary Islands, where they uncover a possible Enigma machine and tunnels used to supply German U-boats with torpedoes.

The manhunt for Adolf Hitler finds Lenny DePaul and Gerrard Williams deep in the Canary Islands, where secret tunnels and a massive German compound may have supplied everything from weapons to a medical facility along Hitler’s potential journey to South America. As the investigation pushes further into Argentina, Tim Kennedy infiltrates a German town known for harboring Nazis after the war. When Gerrard uncovers a mysterious, isolated mansion that could have housed Hitler, the team devises a stealth recon mission with high consequences for failure.

Bob Baer and John Cencich return with new experts and new technology to examine Adolf Hitler's possible escape from every angle; the team returns to Berlin, where Lenny DePaul and Sascha Keil discover an unknown fifth exit from Hitler's Fuhrerbunker.

While investigating makeshift runways, the team finds reason to believe Adolf Hitler would have had a stopping point on the way to Spain; Lenny and historian James Holland head to Denmark, where they investigate an airstrip and a bunker system.

A document shows Adolf Hitler and Leon Degrelle may have moved from Denmark to San Sebastian, Spain; the South American team speaks to an eyewitness who claims his father worked for Hitler's right-hand man, Martin Bormann, after the end of the war.

While following leads on a Nazi escape network, the teams in Southern Spain and Northern Argentina both make discoveries of vast tunnel systems in the mountains.

Bob and John’s investigation continues in Spain, Morocco and Argentina. The teams look into Hitler’s possible escape route while uncovering a plan for a Nazi 4th Reich.

Digging deeper into reports about the Fourth Reich, Bob and John send the team to a rumored weapons testing site in Germany, and a mysterious deserted island in Argentina that could have housed nuclear facilities with Nazi ties after the war.

Bob Baer recruits a terrorist targeting officer, Nada Bakos. The team uncovers two planned escape routes for Adolf Hitler. Tim and James discover a vast tunnel system. Lenny and Gerrard investigate a massive compound hiding under the perfect cover.

Lenny and Gerrard make a startling discovery in a sabotaged aircraft hangar in northern Germany. Mike and James scan an Austrian lake in search for a large cache of secret Nazi documents.

In Norway, Tim and Gerrard explore a hydroelectric plant where the Nazis were dangerously close to producing a nuclear weapon. Mike and James investigate a cabin high in the Austrian Alps where Hitler’s top associate made the ultimate sacrifice.

At the bottom of an Arctic fjord in Norway, Tim dives on Nazi relics that may blow the case wide open. Mike and James encounter a smuggler who leads them to Nazi castle on the Italian border.

Mike and James excavate the grounds of a remote Alpine hotel in search of buried Nazi dead drops. In Rome, Lenny and Gerrard make a shocking discovery that implicates some of the world’s most powerful people.

At a lagoon in Uruguay, Tim and Mike uncover evidence of a long-range seaplane that was shuttling Nazis all around the continent. In Buenos Aires, Tim and Gerrard convince an informant to share a massive cache of explosive documents that could unravel the clandestine global Nazi network known as “Die Spinne.”
