1960. Fifteen years after World War II, Adolf Eichmann, the architect of the Holocaust, knows he is living on borrowed time. The Israelis must catch him and try him for his crimes in the concentration camps. Rumours are rife. Is hiding in Germany, Austria or even in Kuwait? Mossad, the Israeli Secret Service, receives a tip from a dubious source claiming he is in Argentina living under an assumed name. The service's best and most determined agents - Zvi Aharoni and Haim A. - are surprised to find that this past lover of the good life is now living in a Buenos Aires slum. The older and more experienced ex-British soldier, Aharoni, works with the younger but quick-thinking ex-Israeli army officer and spy, Haim A. They develop a detailed plan to snatch Eichmann. But now the question is: how are they to smuggle him thousands of miles back to Israel to stand trial? "This is a book that's hard to put down until at last justice is served... D.
