Spoils of War: The Saga of the Coventry Stained Glass Windows

The Stained Glass Windows had been salvaged from Coventry’s medieval cathedral before it was bombed out by German forces but in 1942 they simply disappeared. Much later, it is discovered that they had found their way to Iceland. How did this happen? It is a mystery of conflicting stories, misplaced documents and confusing contradictions.
