Description: Set at the end of World War II in the German-occupied city of Prague, The Widow Killer opens with the gruesome murder of the Baroness of Pomerania, widow of a German Wehrmacht general, by a perverted serial killer. The coroner's report determined that the victim did not resist and was not raped. However, her limbs were tied together with straps and her body was horifically mutilated, and her still-beating heart was ripped from her body -- mysteriously vanishing with the killer.

So begins this savage tale where CathoLic imagery and political hubris collide, as the unlikely pairing of a green Czech detective and a turncoat Gestapo agent set out to track down the sadistic killer before he can strike again. Pavel Kohout has written a steely, suspenseful novel that will rank as perhaps one of the last important works from one of the war's direct eyewitnesses.
