Detour James Wharton

Framed by chilling historical fact and edge of the seat adventure, two college professors and a beautiful Indian shaman suddenly find themselves in a gripping time travel odyssey which may cost them their lives! Peter Krause is a twenty-eight year old German physics professor in 1935. David Kelly is a thirty-four year old history professor in Arizona in 2010. In the closing days of World War Two Adolf Hitler retreated to his Fuhrerbunker in Berlin. Surrounded by thousands of Russian troops, no escape was possible. Hitler committed suicide on April 30, 1945. David is aware of this fact. Peter Krause will be there when it happens. In May of 1945, not believing Hitler was dead, the Russian leader Josef Stalin sent SMERSH (Russian Intelligence) agents to Berlin to determine the facts. In June of 1945, SMERSH obtained a bullet pierced fragment of Hitler?s skull and the definitive proof he died in the Fuhrerbunker. In 2009, a DNA analysis by the genetics laboratory of the University of Connecticut revealed the ?Hitler skull fragment? actually belonged to a woman less than forty years old. That discovery eliminated the only proof Adolf Hitler died in the Fuhrerbunker in 1945. Lomasi Goodwater is a Navajo shaman living in the Arizona desert in 2010. She is haunted by visions of George Washington being assassinated on the eve of the Revolutionary War. A mysterious man named Tse will set in motion a terrifying journey across continents and centuries which will bring Peter, David and Lomasi together to confront the greatest evil civilization has ever faced.
