An extraordinary novel about one of historys most reviled figures
For three decades, until the day he collapsed in the Brazilian surf in 1979, Josef Mengele, the Angel of Death who performed horrific experiments on the prisoners of Auschwitz, floated through South America in linen suits, keeping two steps ahead of Mossad agents, international police and the worlds journalists. In this rigorusly researched factual noveldrawn almost entirely from historical documentsOlivier Guez traces Mengeles footsteps through these years of flight. This chilling novel situates the reader in a literary manhunt on the trail of one of the most elusive and evil figures of the twentieth century.
