Officer Factory — Hans Hellmut Kirst

Officers aren't born—they're carefully molded. In Nazi Germany this training took place in a horrific factory, where the men received both military and ideological indoctrination, preparing them to fight successfully for the fatherland. When a murder occurs in the school, however, underlying tensions begin to surface. Another unforgettable novel by the world-renowned author of Night of the Generals (made into a film with an all-star cast) and an incomparable journey into the heart of wartime Germany.
