Shadow of the Jackal

By Anthony Hogger

The harrowing story of a young Jewess driven from her home in Austria by a murderous police inspector.

Fearing for her life, Freya Weiss flees Vienna for Guernsey in the Channel Islands, where she works for a family friend, a dentist.

The war breaks out, and the Nazis occupy the islands. Freya is deported to Auschwitz death camp.

After surviving months of starvation and brutality, Freya's worst nightmare is realised when she discovers that her nemesis from her hometown, Inspector Hans Spiegel, is an SS officer at the camp.

Spiegel has a curse: a huge birthmark covering the right side of his face. It takes the form of a snarling dog's head and has been a source of ridicule for his entire life, not least from his own mother, who was too embarrassed to be seen in public wth him.

A riveting story of murder, intrigue, human suffering and endurance set during the Second World War.
