About This Novel
Thain was not imprisoned in a concentration camp, nor did he experience German repression firsthand. However, it was he, a descendant of German colonists who settled in Galicia, who became an outstanding expert on Auschwitz and Nazi criminals after 1945. As chairman of the Regional Committee for the Investigation of German Crime in Kraków, he interrogated leading Nazi criminals: Amon Gerth, Rudolf Hoss and Maria Mandel. Although he later declared himself an opponent of the death penalty, he sent many Nazis to the gallows. He searches and finds evidence in rubble and trash cans, and in an unconventional way comes into contact with witnesses who survived the hell of the concentration camp. He knew how to negotiate with Polish officials, the American and Soviet military, and German prosecutors. He spent 20 years tracking down the whereabouts of the Nazis.
