Dr. Josef Mengele wurde zum Synonym des Bösen schlechthin: Intelligent, ehrgeizig, skrupellos. Er gilt als einer der berüchtigtsten Kriegsverbrecher der NS-Zeit. An der Rampe des Konzentrationslagers Auschwitz II (Birkenau) begutachtete er die neu angekommenen Juden und pfiff während der Selektion Arien. An unzähligen Gefangenen führte Mengele unmenschliche Experimente durch. Obwohl er seit 1945 auf internationalen Fahndungslisten stand, konnte er bis zu seinem Tod 1979 unbelangt in Südamerika leben.

Sometimes, when one is confronted by the horrifying truth of their partner's evil deeds, rather than recoiling in horror, they instead join in on the carnage. In other times, it is the love of evil that brings them together, and they share in monstrous fantasies that they enact on the world. Covering up each other's crimes, they can prove difficult to catch.

As the Nazi war machine caused death and destruction throughout Europe, one man in the Fatherland began his own reign of terror. This is the true story of the pursuit and capture of a serial killer in the heart of the Third Reich. For all appearances, Paul Ogorzow was a model German.

Noted scholar Roberta Mazza was stunned. When was this piece discovered, and how could Green acquire such a rare item? The answers, which Mazza spent the next ten years uncovering, came as a shock: the fragment had come from a famous collection held at Oxford University, and its rightful owners had no idea it had been sold.
