Synopsis
Killing the SS focuses on the hunt for Nazi war criminals, who escaped capture after World War II, and bringing them to justice. Among those criminals are Josef Mengele, the physician who conducted medical experiments at Auschwitz concentration camp; Martin Bormann, Adolf Hitler's personal secretary; Klaus Barbie, known as the "Butcher of Lyon"; and Adolf Eichmann, one of the major organizers of the Holocaust.
Reception
USA Today gave the book two out of four stars and said, "There’s nothing particularly new here about the search for Adolf Hitler’s most notorious henchmen and women," but, it'll "no doubt, be a welcome addition to the best-selling series."[2]
