Krátky popis
In 1990, in a drafty basement archive in Prague, two American
historians made a startling discovery: a Nazi roster from 1945 that
no Western investigator had ever seen. The long-forgotten document,
containing more than 700 names, helped unravel the details behind
the most lethal killing operation in World War Two. In the tiny
Polish village of Trawniki, the SS set up a school for mass murder
and then recruited a roving army of foot soldiers, 5,000 men
strong, to help annihilate the Jewish population of occupied
Poland. After the war, some of these men vanished, making their way
to the U.S. and blending into communities across America. Though
they participated in some of the most unspeakable crimes of the
Holocaust, "Trawniki Men" spent years hiding in plain sight, their
terrible secrets intact. In a story spanning seven decades, Citizen
865 chronicles the harrowing wartime journeys of two Jewish orphans
from occupied Poland who outran the men of Trawniki and settled in
the United States, only to learn that some of their one-time
captors had followed. A tenacious team of prosecutors and
historians pursued these men and, up against the forces of time and
political opposition, battled to the present day to remove them
from U.S. soil. Through insider accounts and research in four
countries, this urgent and powerful narrative provides a front row
seat to the dramatic turn of events that allowed a small group of
American Nazi hunters to hold murderous men accountable for their
crimes decades after the war's end.
