The devil's mistress

the diary of Eva Braun, the woman who lived and died with Hitler

Eva Anna Paula Braun, vain, silly, and easily deluded, was seventeen in 1929 when she first met "Herr Wolf," a 40-year-old with penetrating blue eyes who otherwise looked like a frumpy postman. By the time she learned that her "old" admirer was Adolf Hitler, the leader of the outlawed Nazi party, they had begun a sexual liaison that would survive the Fuhrer's rise to power, World War II, a bevy of beautiful women vying for his attention, and finally end in marriage and double suicide in 1945.

The Devil's Mistress is a chilling, satirical work of extrapolation that has been grafted onto a fragment of Eva Braun's actual diary written in 1935. Based on extensive research and supported by a factual armature, this personification of evil takes the reader into the hidden erotic life of Hitler, and - as she was affectionately nicknamed - Fraulein Effie.

And, without ever realizing that she was the sex slave of one of the cruelest men in history, she was nonetheless able to chisel out a powerful identity for herself within a loathsome, amoral milieu of mass killers.
