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. The final chapter is truly shocking.

We received this recently for free, due to my Premium membership. My husband pounced on it at once. He read it in about 24 hours. He said, "You won't believe what you didn't know. Why don't we get this book for your brother?" So, we did. He lives out-of-state and visited for the holidays. He read it in two days during his visit. We highly recommend this book

I purchased the audio version so I could listen to it in the car. Wow. What I learned was shocking. I had no idea there were so many Hitler supporters in South America. I enjoyed the audio version so much that I purchased another to give for a Christmas gift. I highly recommend it.
