A King who defied Hitler in one of the great dramas of World War II - only to be deposed and exiled by Stalin's new puppet regime. For the next fifty years he was a King without a country. Caught between Cold War combatants, he was courted by the CIA who tried to draw him into anti-Communist plots and spied on constantly by agents of the Romanian Secret Service. Alone in exile, he continued to be a voice for his people oppressed by the communist dictatorship and yearned for the day when he could return home. Drawn from a never-before-seen interview with the King himself, and featuring an exclusive interview with Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh and contributions from historians, members of the King's own family and close advisers, "The Last King Behind the Iron Curtain", is a tale of courage and survival and the triumph of hope.
