In the aftermath of the Second Word War, the first British War Crimes Investigation Team is assembled to hunt down the senior Nazi officials responsible for the greatest atrocities the world has ever seen. One of the lead investigators is Lieutenant Hanns Alexander, a German Jew serving in the British Army. Rudolf Höss is his most elusive target. As Kommandant of Auschwitz, Hoss not only oversaw the murder of more than one million men, women, and children; he was the man who perfected Hitler's program of mass extermination. This is the story of two German men whose lives diverged, and intersected, in an astonishing way. 591 Record updated by Marcive processing 21 June 2024 610 20 Auschwitz (Concentration camp) |xOfficials and employees |vBiography. 600 10 Höss, Rudolf, |d1900-1947. 600 10 Alexander, Hanns, |d1917-2006. 610 10 Great Britain. |bArmy |xOfficers |vBiography. 650 0 Jews |zGermany |vBiography. 650 0 Jews |zGreat Britain |vBiography. 650 0 War criminals |zGermany |vBiography. 650 0 Internment camp commandants |zPoland |zOświęcim |vBiography. 650 0 Nazi concentration camp commandants |zPoland |zOświęcim |vBiography. 655 7 Biographies. |2lcgft 852 0 |bstacks |hD805.5.A96 |iH38 2013 852 0 |bscstacks |hD805.5.A96 |iH38 2013 |tc. 2
