Dead of Night , Scarrow - B

                      In the second in this series, we find Inspector Schenke trying to stick to the letter of the law in his investigations for the Berlin police as Germany descends into war and the law seems to be becoming the whim of the Nazi Party. He investigates the disappearance of disabled children who are under the care of the Reich Committee for the Scientific Registering of Serious Hereditary and Congenital Illnesses. He finds out bits and pieces of what we now know was the extreme eugenics program known as Aktion T4, whereby the Reich murdered the racial undesirables. Schenke is man of character and pursues the matter as far as he can before he is called off by Reinhold Heydrich himself.
