Löwengold

By Steve Rogan

Suffering critical injuries after a hit-and-run incident in suburban Dandenong, eighteen-year-old Arron Keller is placed into an induced coma. His brain activity is abnormally erratic, and his doctor fears that he might not recover to his former self. After seven weeks, Arron emerges from the coma, entering then into a trance-like state, and begins speaking to his mother in German.

Her son's doctor seeks the assistance of German-speaking Radiologist, Doctor Bronwyn Fischer, bringing her immediately to Arron's room to ask him questions. He reveals details of an ex-German soldier's last night of life in Giessen in 1946.

Being told that neither of Lillian's sons have ever learned the German language, Dr. Fischer surmises the bed-side exchange to be nothing more than Arron's mind tapping into his subconscious, replaying a jumbled set of memories born of his love of old World War II movies. Arron becomes an instant celebrity after the posting of the video Lillian recorded of the exchange with Dr Fischer to her lifestyle blog and her two social media accounts goes viral, and a Melbourne Morning Show interviews Arron and Lillian in his hospital room, thus increasing the exposure of the video around the world.

In addition to a plethora of teenage girls flooding Arron's Instagram, his celebrity status, and the reasons for it, catches the attention of various people whose respective interest in the video's content runs far deeper than mere curiosity, marking Arron as a vital key to the recovery of a rare artefact, rumoured to predate the Younger Dryas Stadial, twice stolen during World War II and lost for many decades since.
