Death Knell — C. Terry Cline

Pamela Roth, like her brilliant father, German emigrant Russell Roth, exhibits from childhood a cool composure and rare intellect. Although only a teenager, she is increasingly absorbed with the history of the Hitler period, the Holocaust, and the truth of her fatherââ,¬â"¢s early life in wartime Germany.

Pamelaââ,¬â"¢s mother becomes alarmed at her daughterââ,¬â"¢s obsession and turns for help to Otto Ebenstein, an old friend and psychiatrist with an outstanding record for tracking down Nazi war criminals. Pamelaââ,¬â"¢s youthful passion for Nazi history rekindles Ottoââ,¬â"¢s flagging dedication to the cause.

When two ex-Nazis are found sexually assaulted and tortured to death, Otto begins to suspect Pamela of powers beyond his reckoning. His investigations lead him to an astonishing discovery.

Death Knell is a breathtaking novel of chilling suspense and retribution whose seed lies in the gas chambers of Auschwitz.
