Story
"The Children of the Third Reich" - College freshman Kari Berman and her twin brother Kyle are young, healthy, brilliant, and attractive. To genetic researcher Dr. Martin Speer they're breeding stock, part of his scheme to make create superior humans through modern genetics.
Summary
College freshman Kari Berman and her identical twin brother Kyle embody Dr. Martin Speer's vision of human perfection: youthful, robust, intellectually gifted, and aesthetically pleasing. Speer, a genetics researcher, sees them as prime specimens in his covert operation echoing the Nazi Lebensborn program, aimed at breeding an Aryan master race. Unbeknownst to Kari, her life is about to dramatically change when she unravels this chilling secret while navigating a seemingly ordinary Midwest college campus. As Kari grapples with this revelation and its implications on her relationship with Kyle, Speer's genetic engineering experiments threaten to consume them both, intertwining themes of adultery, incest, white supremacy, and neo-Nazi ideologies set against Wagnerian opera motifs.
