Just re-posting my book comments to above. Seems as early as summer 1942 some German Generals could see what was on the horizon.

Dowly, with the German defeat at Stalinggrad and almost collapse of their Southern Front which was saved my Manstein, when did Finland start opening talks with Russia?

With Paulus at Stalingrad

Colonel Wilhelm Adam, senior ADC to General Paulus, commander of the German 6th Army at Stalingrad, wrote a compelling and controversial memoir describing the German defeat, his time as a prisoner of war with Paulus, and his conversion to communism. Now, for the first time, his German text has been translated into English.
Another interesting point of view, German Generals were fearing the war was heading for defeat after their victory outside Kharkov 1942. The price was too high and this was all before Case Blue.
