The Frosell Affair

UNMATCHED INTERNATIONAL INTRIGUE IN A MASTERFULLY WRITTEN WORLD WAR II THRILLER. Oscar Frosell, wealthy Swedish businessman, philanthropist, and family man, survived the Nazi occupation of Paris and, like many of his countrymen, was looking forward to being a part of France's postwar future. But in the rapacious, score-settling chaos of the new French State, Frosell's fortune-rare art, priceless jewels, antique furniture, gold, platinum, a valuable stamp collection, and especially his opulent Paris apartment-worth over $40 billion today, was an irresistible temptation for some thieves. A conspiracy to steal Frosell's treasures was hatched by naval hero Admiral Dumesnil, the admiral's daughter (a high-ranking commandante and friend of Charles de Gaulle), and the Swedish general consul, lauded as "the man who saved Paris." The conspirators launched a nightmarish defamation campaign against Frosell, which not only denied his Swedish nationality, but also denounced him as a Nazi collaborator and Gestapo agent. Frosell then fought for years against relentless persecution and intimidation, fabricated charges and trumped-up testimonies, five counts of false imprisonment, near-execution and escape from the notorious Oermigen concentration camp, and the illegal, state-sanctioned confiscation of everything he and his family-owned-authorized by General Charles de Gaulle himself. The Frosell Affair is the unforgettable story of one man's fight for justice and restitution.
