By: Jack Fairweather
From the #1 Sunday Times bestselling author of The Volunteer, the powerful true story of a Jewish lawyer who returned to Germany after World War II to prosecute war crimes, only to find himself pitted against a nation determined to bury the past.
At the end of the Nuremberg trials in 1946, some of the greatest war criminals in history were sentenced to death, but hundreds of thousands of Nazi murderers and collaborators remained at large. The Allies were ready to overlook their pasts as the Cold War began, and the legacy of the Holocaust was in danger of being forgotten.
In The Prosecutor, Jack Fairweather brings to life the heroic story of Fritz Bauer who survived the Nazis as a gay Jewish man to force his countrymen––and the world––to confront their complicity in the genocide. In this deeply researched book, Fairweather draws on Bauer’s unpublished family papers, newly reclassified German records, and exclusive interviews with those who knew him, to take readers into Bauer’s mission to bring Adolf Eichmann and the perpetrators of Auschwitz to justice.
The Prosecutor is an extraordinary, untold Cold War story of a detective on the trail of the mankind’s darkest crimes, who battled his government, took on a Nazi network of killers and spies, and survived to inspire a new generation.
