307 pages : illustrations, maps ; 24 cm"Confronting Nazi evil is the subject of the latest installment in the mega-bestselling Killing series. 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 the notorious SS leader, Heinrich Himmler. Others, however, evaded capture through a sophisticated Nazi organization designed to hide them. Among those 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 waged by self-styled "Nazi hunters." This determined and disparate group included 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. Over decades, these men and women scoured the world, tracking down the SS fugitives and bringing them to justice, which often meant death. Written in the fast-paced style of the Killing series, Killing the SS will educate and stun the reader."--provided by publisherBill O'Reilly and Martin DugardIncludes bibliographical references (pages 289-291) and indexa-is---e-gx---Harel, Isser1912-2003Harel, Isser1912-2003Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiter-Partei.SchutzstaffelOfficersIsrael.Mosad le-modiʻin ṿe-tafḳidim meyuḥadimHistoryIsrael.Mosad le-modiʻin ṿe-tafḳidim meyuḥadim.Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiter-Partei.Schutzstaffel.World War (1939-1945). 1939-1945 fast 1450 Nazi huntersHistoryWorld War, 1939-1945AtrocitiesWar criminalsGermanyHistoryFugitives from justiceGermanyHistoryArmed ForcesOfficersAtrocitiesFugitives from justiceNazi huntersWar criminalsGermany940.53/180922O'Reilly, Bill978125016554112501655472018017242Henry Holt & Co, C/O Mps 175 Fifth Ave, New York, NY, USA, 1001018073020190502002200.01043788806
