Hiroshima survivor Genjo Tokuda, head of the Yakuza crime syndicate, is lured to Vancouver for a convention. The keynote speaker will be one of the crewman from the Enola Gay. Tokuda plans first to kill the crewman's family, then he'll kill the American airman in a fittingly gruesome way. That crewman is the grandfather of Corporal Jackie Hett of the RCMP's Special X squad.

In the closing days of World War II, Hitler summons SS General Ernest Streicher to his Berlin bunker to discuss the Third Reich's only hope to win the war - the Wonder Weapons controlled by Himmler's dreaded SS. When an overnight raid by the Aliies forces Streicher to abandon his factory assembling V-2 rockets, it sets in motion a monstrous conspiracy that still lies hidden today.

In present-day Vancouver, the RCMP's Special X squad is on the hunt for a pair of Nazi-inspired killers. A Nazi swastika is carved into each victim's forehead. When Special X turns to the FBI for links to the swastika signature in the United States, the black world of the Pentagon picks up the cllue and ties it to the long-kept secret of what crashed at Roswell, New Mexico, in 1947.

Moving between wartime Germany and the manhunt in Vancouver, Swastika revolves around a deadly four-sided cat and mouse game embroiling the Mounties, Pentagon hit men, and the Nazi psychopaths.
