For her whole life, Souad Mekhennet, a reporter for the Washington Post who was born and educated in Germany, has had to balance the two sides of her upbringing - Muslim and Western. She has also sought to provide a mediating voice between these cultures, which too often misunderstand each other.

Dr. Aribert Heim worked at the Mauthausen concentration camp for only a few months in 1941 but left a devastating mark. According to the testimony of survivors, Heim euthanized patients with injections of gasoline into their hearts. He performed surgeries on otherwise healthy people. Some recalled prisoners' skulls set out on his desk to display perfect sets of teeth. Yet in the chaos of the postwar period, Heim was able to slip away from his dark past and establish himself as a reputable doctor and family man in the resort town of Baden-Baden.

Souad Mekhennet deckte die Entführung und Folterung des Deutsch-Libanesen Khaled al-Masri durch die CIA auf, interviewte den Führer von al-Qaida im Maghreb, enttarnte den berüchtigten IS-Henker "Jihadi John" und wusste nach den Pariser Anschlägen schon vor der Polizei, wer der in Saint Denis erschossene Attentäter war. Die Journalistin verfügt über ungewöhnliche Verbindungen zu den Netzwerken des Dschihad - und über ein einzigartiges investigatives Talent.

Dr. Aribert Heim var en af Nazi-Tysklands mest berygtede og eftersøgte nazister. Som læge i koncentrationslejren Mauthausen udførte han grufulde operationer på raske mennesker og sprøjtede benzin ind i jødiske patienters hjerter - hans metoder kostede utallige menneskeliv. Efter Det Tredje Riges fald blev dr. Aribert Heim et af de mest eftersøgte mennesker i verden, men det lykkedes aldrig nazijægerne at finde ham og stille ham til ansvar for sine forbrydelser.
