Check the Villa. Last month, however, came a tip from Egypt that Zech-Nenntwich had flown to Brussels. Rushing there, Münch flashed the fugitive's picture to taxi drivers at the airport until one cabby remembered taking the German to the border town of Eupen. In Eupen, Münch found another driver who had taken a "German businessman" across the border on a rush trip to Remagen-the town where Zech-Nenntwich owns a villa.

...loaded with supplies and soldiers rolled through Brussels while civilians piled sandbags around buildings and factories. Messengers rushed through every Belgian city, summoning officers and men from theatres, cafes, homes. Brussels had a partial blackout, something she never had during last autumn's scare. French-speaking residents of Eupen and Malmédy (ceded by Germany after World War I) were evacuated to the interior. King Leopold became active Commander in Chief of the Army...
