How Hitler's Henchmen Fled Justice" of how Nazi war criminals escaped from justice at the end of World War II by fleeing through the Tyrolean Alps, and the role played by the Red Cross, the Vatican, and the Secret Services of the major powers in smuggling them away from prosecution in Europe to a new life in North and South America, Spain, and the Near East.
