A gripping World War II history for readers of true crime and military nonfiction, uncovering the relentless pursuit of fugitive Nazis and the investigators who brought them to justice. Following the Russian invasion of Berlin, Adolf Hitler committed suicide along with several of his henchmen, including Josef Goebbels and his family. But many high-ranking Nazis, such as the architect of the 'Final Solution', Adolf Eichmann, Josef Mengele, who conducted horrific experiments on prisoners in concentration camps, and Franz Stangl, the commandant of the Sobibor and Treblinka death camps, disappeared, along with scientists and others who had occupied key official roles. This book is the story of the tireless investigators who sought to dig them out from their hiding places and bring them to justice. They include Simon Wiesenthal, Tuviah Friedman, Serge Klarsfeld, Beate Klarsfeld, Ian Sayer, Yaron Svoray, Elliot Welles, and Efraim Zuroff. This book looks at their search methods and success rates.
