Seeing the writing on the wall, some Nazi profiteers set about removing their loot from Germany in the early months of 1945: to Switzerland, Sweden, Spain, Portugal and South America. Lochery has written on Lisbon during WW2, a history of Portugal from the 1974 revolution to the present and on wartime Brazil; he’s extremely knowledgeable about underground lines of communication.
