Just want to say I was so relieved when most of you got what I was aiming for in this. I felt a huge burden of responsibility in telling Sophia's story and realised the only way I could pull off such a  mystery was to sum up the last 5-pages of what should have been an entire feature.

A couple of things I'd like to clear up.

The Chris Lee in this is the actor Christopher Lee. During WWII he served in the RAF and then in a special operation unit, which was the beginnings of the SAS. His war record is sealed and he refuses to discuss this aspect of his life, but it is believed he did actually hunt down Nazi's after the war. I, therefore, imagined a kind of a Hammer House of Horror way of him dealing with the nazis.

There were a few people who did not think this story fitted the 'money is the root of all evil' theme because Nazis did what they did out of loyalty of a cause they believed in. Some did for sure but the Nazis stole an obscene amount of gold and wealth which they used to reward this loyalty and spread their corrupt ideas.

I would urge folks who believe otherwise to look over that aspect of history again as it is happening now. Money does more damage than sending in the tanks. Our enemies know that and they are corrupting the West.

However, hands up, I do admit the way I shoehorned in the gold aspect with on the nose dialogue was my bad. I couldn't figure out any other way to mention it in the five pages but I did handle that badly.

Thanks again, and here's to round 2!
