Baron von Hoiningen is a mystery. A Nazi, he nevertheless saved hundreds of Jews and members of the Resistance during the war... one of which was François Heisbourg's father.

This narrative could have been called « The Man Without a Face , inasmuch that it has been so difficult to find a photographic trace of the strange Baron Franz Von Hoiningen. Member of the Nazi party, this German officer saves hundreds of Jews and members of the Resistance (one of which was the father of the author), finds himself implicated in the plot against Hitler, flees Germany with the Gestapo on his heels, and will finish his odyssey in the arms of his beloved in Luxembourg. He braves all dangers in extreme conditions. But why is it impossible to find even the smallest amount of information concerning the reasons for his U-turn, about his opinions following the war ? Why do his descendents maintain such a silence around this man ?

François Heisbourg is a special advisor at the Foundation for Strategic Research, chair of the International Institute for Strategic Studies of London and of the Geneva Centre for Security Policy. He has published, among others, Après Al Qaïda (2009) and Comment perdre la guerre contre le terrorisme (2016).
