WHAT IF THE THIRD REICH NEVER REALLY ENDED?
Operation Ghost Reich: From Bavaria to Buenos Aires rips open sealed archives, Vatican rat-lines, and Mossad dossiers to reveal the labyrinth that let Hitler's most ruthless lieutenants vanish, only to re-emerge as "respectable" neighbors, engineers, and even Cold War assets.
THE CHASE BEGINS ON A FOG-SOAKED BAVARIAN PLATFORM
May 1945: forged Red Cross papers, rosaries hiding SS gold, and a ghost train headed south mark the moment thousands of war criminals step off history's stage and into suburbia. Their escape ignites a five-part global pursuit through monasteries turned safe houses, black-market passport rings in Flensburg, and "ghost ships" smuggling fugitives across the Atlantic.
INSIDE THE SPIDERWEB OF COMPLICITY
- Rat-lines and the Vatican Veil - sympathetic clergy and bureaucrats spirited killers through Rome, Spain, and Genoa while Allied guards looked the other way.
- SS Gold - bullion looted from Holocaust victims bankrolls new identities from Damascus to the Andes.
- Sanctuaries of Shadows - Alpine Bariloche and Chile's Colonia Dignidad became picture-postcard resorts for torturers, complete with underground bunkers and torture rooms.
- Cold War Bargains - the CIA, MI6, and even the KGB recruited Nazi specialists in counter-insurgency, interrogation, and rocketry, rewriting justice in the name of realpolitik.
MOSSAD STRIKES BACK
From the daring abduction of Adolf Eichmann in 1960 to covert raids that smashed neo-Nazi weapons pipelines in Paraguay, Israel's agents wage an unrelenting shadow war against men the courts forgot. Each mission asks the same haunting question: can justice override borders - or time itself?
WHY THIS BOOK NOW?
Newly declassified Argentine shipping ledgers and freshly released German intelligence files expose dozens more fugitives - and the governments that protected them. Operation Ghost Reich anchors these revelations in verifiable fact while confronting today's surge of denial and revisionism.
A NARRATIVE THAT READS LIKE A THRILLER – BECAUSE IT IS ONE
Author Gary Covella, Ph.D. blends newly opened archives, eyewitness testimony, and long-buried newspaper reports into a cinematic, deeply human story where:
- The Tailor of San Martin stitches SS uniforms in secret while coaching Little League in Argentina.
- A Chilean engineer's testimony tears his hometown apart - justice versus the jobs Nazis once provided.
- An elderly "dentist" in Queens guards the key to a Bolivian death camp - and your next-door neighbor could be his son.
PERFECT FOR READERS OF Killing the SS, Nazi Hunters, AND The Ratline
If you crave meticulously sourced history that punches like a spy novel, this is your next obsession. Every chapter ends on a cliff-hanger; every revelation forces you to ask how much evil still hides behind a friendly smile.

Andrew Mellon, one of the most accomplished businessmen of his era, is almost unknown today. To this shy, diffident (but brilliant) man fell the daunting task of collecting the war debts from European governments still devastated by WWI and struggling to recover economically. Dealing with the US Congress and the heads of foreign governments on the world stage became one of the great adventures of his life. Mellon vs. Churchill presents Winston Churchill through a different lens, focusing on his service as Chancellor of the Exchequer when Great Britain was the largest debtor to the US.

This sweeping saga will transport you to the period following the Revolutionary War, during the westward expansion beyond the Appalachian Mountains. Under the Articles of Confederation, the United States government was weak and deeply in debt, with a minuscule standing army. Most European nations did not expect the fledgling country to survive. At the same time, Lenape, Miami, and Shawnee leaders formed an alliance to fight the growing American encroachment. Enter into this scenario a group of military veterans and their families, with deep roots in the indigenous culture, who wish to make ...

In June 1944, German and American forces converged on an insignificant bridge a few miles inland from the invasion beaches. If taken by the Nazis, the bridge might have gone down in history as the reason the Allies failed on D-Day. The narrow road over it was each side’s conduit to victory. Continued Nazi control over the bridge near an old manoir known as La Fière—one of only two bridges in the region capable of supporting tanks and other heavy armor—would allow the Germans to reinforce their defenses at Utah Beach, one of the five landing areas chosen for Operation Overlord.

Here is a gripping account of the major postwar trial of the Nazi hierarchy in World War II. The Nuremberg Trial brilliantly recreates the trial proceedings and offers a reasoned, often profound examination of the processes that created international law. From the whimpering of Kaltenbrunner and Ribbentrop on the stand to the icy coolness of Goering, each participant is vividly drawn.
