WWII Berlin. Freyja Bremer, a patriotic museum assistant, marries Kaspar Voigt, an ambitious SS scholar, to protect her father. Yet she is unaware her husband is instrumental in Himmler's twisted quest for Aryan supremacy.
As she strives to safeguard the priceless Priam's Treasure from air raids, Freyja falls in love with Darien Lessing, an archaeologist who exposes the moral decay beneath the Regime's myths. Her awakening drives her into perilous resistance - aiding a Jewish doctor and his wife, Darien's sister - while uncovering Kaspar's role in the SS's darkest programmes, which subvert history to justify invasion, abduction and murder.
As Berlin collapses into chaos and bloodshed, Freyja, caught between duty, deception and desire, must risk everything to preserve truth in a world built on lies.
A heartbreaking yet triumphant love story, Fables & Lies shines light on lesser-known aspects of the Nazi Regime. It gives voice to the complex moral struggles of German women, the
forgotten resistance of Gentiles married to Jews, the dangers of contested history, the evils of Himmler's racial studies programme and the unsung bravery of German museum curators who saved their nation's treasures.
