Description
It is 1949.
Max Chambers, a not-very-successful private investigator based in his hometown of New Rochelle, New York, is forced to confront his wartime nightmare -- the death of his childhood pal and the liberation of the infamous Nazi death camp, Buchenwald. With the help of his comical partner, Gino Domenico, and his plucky young secretary, Sally Connors, Max is faced with tracking down war criminal, Karl Schmitt, the former commandant of Buchenwald.
Using clues provided by a former inmate of the death camp, Max and his crew face danger at every turn in an adventure that takes them on a whirlwind tour of the country. This is a case that threatens the happiness of Max's marriage and the security of his close-knit Italian family.
Can Max bring this fugitive Nazi to justice? Knowing that execution is waiting for him, will Karl Schmitt kill again to avoid a visit with the gallows?
