The Brandenburgers: The Brandenburgers (Paperback)

The end of the Second World War is nearing and Germany's leaders realize that they will lose, so they must secure what the country will need to rebuild once the dust settles. And this means money. A lot of money. Fortunately, the vaults of the Reichsbank are full of gold that can be liquidated when the time comes. But first, it all needs to be kept out of Allied and Soviet hands. Part of the Reichsbank's treasure is sent to the icy wastes of the Far North under the protection of Sergeant Bachmann's Brandenburgers. At first, the men count themselves lucky to get pulled out of the collapsing front in East Prussia to go on this mission - especially when they find a mysterious cave that promises riches that could set them up for life. However, with the SS, and Soviet and British special forces getting involved, the Brandenburgers soon realize that they might not be as fortunate as they thought they were.
