About this listen
The Nazi Hunters is the incredible, hitherto untold story of the most secret chapter in the SAS' history. Officially, the world's most elite special forces unit was dissolved at the end of the Second World War and not reactivated until the 1950s.
Among their last actions was a disastrous commando raid into occupied France in 1944, which ended in the capture, torture and execution of 31 soldiers. It can now be revealed that the SAS never was dissolved: it lived on, commanded personally by Churchill and hidden even from the British government.
They were tasked with hunting through the ruins of the Reich for the SS commanders responsible for the murders of their comrades, including many who had escaped the failed justice of the Nuremberg trials. Along the way they discovered before anyone else the full horror of Hitler's regime and the growing threat from Stalin's Russia.
Still studied by the SAS today and a central part of their founding myth, the story of the Nazi hunters is now told by best-selling author Damien Lewis.

History with the storytelling of a thriller
I really enjoyed listening to this audiobook. The narrator had enough drama to add to it without going to excess. The history itself was sobering, but very interesting, a unique story. It had the engagement of an action thriller, without any of the gratuitous excesses of that genre. Highly recommend

Hard to follow characters and get a sense of scale
The stories are phenomenal, however there are so many people mentioned that it is hard to get a sense of who’s doing what or the scale in which they’re doing it.
Very interesting tale and glad to have listened to it though. The work done is as brutal as it is fascinating.
