Seems to be a good read if you happen to live in Vienna.

My Review: March 2009
At first I really thought I wouldn't like this story very much. Politics, spyish, cold-war-ish... But after a little while I got really interested in the historical background. Of course I know about the fate of the Jewish ppl during World War II, but this here was a bit of a new perspective.
The framework of the story is not historical recounts but a criminal story of hunting down old nazi henchmen. It's scary to read (and know it's true) how many helpers they had after the war to flee Germany or Austria, and how many of them could even stay and work normally as if nothing ever happened. Scary and shameful.
