Meer over het boek

The narrative centers on Fritz Bauer, a Jewish lawyer who, after World War II, dedicated himself to prosecuting Nazi war criminals in Germany. Confronted by a nation reluctant to confront its past, Bauer's quest became a pivotal struggle against the amnesia surrounding the Holocaust. Drawing from extensive research, including unpublished family papers and interviews, the book highlights his efforts to bring notorious figures like Adolf Eichmann to justice. It reveals a compelling Cold War story of resilience and moral courage in the face of overwhelming opposition.
