Hitler's Last Twelve Days
Literature希特勒的最后十二天
(france) Jean-christophe Brissard (russia) Lana Parshina
On May 8, 1945, Nazi Germany surrendered. A week earlier, Hitler committed suicide in an underground bunker at the Chancellery in Berlin. Starting on May 1, the Soviet Union launched an investigation into Hitler's death and searched for the remains of Hitler and his wife. The resulting investigation report was sealed and became a secret. Today, more than seventy years later, these files have finally come to light, thus revealing the ultimate secret of World War II. After two years of negotiations with Russian authorities, investigative reporters Jean-Christophe Brissard and Lana Parshina finally gained access to the files and were able to gain a glimpse into the extraordinary experience of Soviet spies in tracking down Hitler's body. Did the Soviets succeed in identifying the burned body on the day after the armistice as belonging to Hitler himself? Why did Stalin let the whole world think that Hitler had successfully escaped? ...Because there were no remains, questions spread rapidly and still capture people's imagination.
