Accompanying her parents to Berlin in the 1930s, Martha Dodd knew almost nothing about Adolf Hitler or the Nazis. Yet almost overnight she stepped into the spotlight, and found herself at the over-heated centre of Hitler’s ‘New Germany’, befriending and dating several high-ranking Nazis, including the then-head of the Gestapo. An affair with a dashing Russian diplomat saw her recruited as a spy, and so began a long and tumultuous career in both Berlin and America, including attempts to infiltrate First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt’s inner circle and playing a key role in Henry Wallace’s disastrous 1948 presidential campaign.
