After giving a lecture in Berlin, Max, a world-famous professor of genetic research, is kidnapped. He is shown part of a corpse, a wrist, that is discovered after a bomb explodes at a neo-Nazi rally. The wrist looks like it comes from a male of about 40, but it actually belongs to Gehlen, the Nazi lieutenant general, who must be over 100 years old. To solve the mystery, Max heads for the village of Donba deep in the Amazon with his assistant Katya and meets the village-leader's daughter, Tania. Together, Max and Katya find the Nazi laboratory that remains there, and they get involved in a grand conspiracy of the Nazis. This fast-paced story takes place in Berlin, the Amazon, California, and Rome. While Max and Katya try to solve the mystery, their romance also grows.
