Description
As the true horrors of the Third Reich began to be exposed immediately after World War II, the Nazi war criminals who committed genocide went on the run. A few were swiftly caught, including notorious SS leader Heinrich Himmler. Others, however, evaded capture, through a sophisticated Nazi organization designed to hide them. Among these war criminals were Josef Mengele, the "Angel of Death" who performed hideous medical experiments at Auschwitz; Martin Bormann, Hitler's brutal personal secretary; Klaus Barbie, the cruel "Butcher of Lyon"; and perhaps the most awful Nazi of all: Adolf Eichmann. Killing the SS is the epic saga of the espionage and daring actions carried out against them. The Nazi hunters include a French husband-and-wife team, an American lawyer who served in the army on D-Day, a German prosecutor who had signed an oath to the Nazi Party, Israeli Mossad agents, and a death camp survivor. These men and women scoured the world, tracking down the SS fugitives and bringing them to justice. --,Adapted from publisher.
