Looking for Garbo

When documentary filmmaker James Main places an ad looking for anyone who knew movie goddess Greta Garbo, Seth Moseley, a salty old reporter dying of emphysema, replies with the promise of the untold story of why the reclusive star left Hollywood at the height of her fame. From his hospital bed, Seth recounts how, as a stowaway aboard the S.S. Athenia steaming toward Sweden, he met, fell in love with, and rescued Garbo from Nazis intent on delivering her to her biggest fan - Adolf Hitler. And, unbeknownst to James, hearing Seth's story decades later will change his own life forever. - back cover.
