A Brazilian journalist investigates a network that concealed "The Angel of Death," the notorious Nazi doctor who evaded justice for over thirty years after World War II. Josef Mengele, infamous for his cruel human experiments at Auschwitz, lived as a fugitive for thirty-four years, primarily in Brazil, while being pursued by the Israeli secret service and Nazi hunters until his death in 1979. In Brazil, he crafted a life where he could speak German, uphold his beliefs, and maintain connections with like-minded expatriates. Among those who aided him was Austrian ex-pat Liselotte Bossert, who provided false documents to protect his identity even posthumously. When Mengele's remains were discovered in 1985, Liselotte was teaching at a German school in São Paulo and was abruptly removed from her classroom, leaving her young student, Betina Anton, puzzled. Years later, as a journalist, Betina pursued the mystery and found Liselotte, unaware of the profound depths her investigation would reveal. Translated from Portuguese and grounded in extensive research, including interviews and archival material, this suspenseful narrative delves into the dark legacy of Mengele's experiments and the motivations of a community that shielded one of history's most notorious figures.
