On 23 May 1945, Heinrich Himmler - Reichsführer SS and one of the most powerful men in Nazi Germany - was reported to have committed suicide in British custody. But how much of the official narrative holds true?In The Murder of Heinrich Himmler, historian Krzysztof Drozdowski delves into inconsistencies and unanswered questions surrounding Himmler’s final hours. Drawing on newly accessed archives, eyewitness statements, and correspondence, Drozdowski explores whether Himmler was really the man who died in Lüneburg, or if he was silenced to prevent the spread of dangerous secrets.Why was the autopsy report sealed until 2045? Why were the Soviets and Americans denied access to the body? What role did British intelligence and military authorities play? Could Himmler have escaped, or was his death the result of a well-planned cover-up?This compelling book offers not only a thorough re-examination of Himmler’s demise, but also a chilling glimpse into the murky world of post-war intelligence and political intrigue.

The Last Secrets of the Nazis is a documentary-style investigation into the most sensational, disputed, and mythologised aspects of the history of the Third Reich – from the corridors of power and clandestine operations to the post-war hideouts of Nazi criminals. Drawing on archival records, eyewitness testimonies, and recent scholarship, the author revisits cases that continue to fire the imagination: Rudolf Hess’s secret flight to Britain, Heinrich Himmler’s “shadow game” with the Allies, attempts at a separate peace, and the backstage decisions taken in the twilight of the Reich.At its core, the book presents a gallery of Nazi criminals and regime insiders – Mengele, Reinefarth, von Alvensleben, Eichmann, Stangl, Rauff, Skorzeny, Degrelle and others – whose post-1945 trajectories expose the extent of post-war impunity, escape networks, and the silent protection offered by the Church, intelligence services, and Western governments. The author reconstructs the mechanisms of escape to South America, underground lives in Europe, and the later efforts of “Nazi hunters” such as Simon Wiesenthal and Beate and Serge Klarsfeld.Drozdowski also dissects the darker symbols and myths: Werwolf and the supposed “Nazi underground”, ODESSA, the “Alpine Fortress” legend, the German nuclear project and Wunderwaffe, Lebensborn as a “factory of the master race”, the mystery of the last U-boats, Hitler’s special train “Amerika/Brandenburg”, and Operation Paperclip, through which American services recruited former Nazi scientists. He confronts these stories with the documentary record to show where thriller-like legend ends and hard history begins – and how the unresolved, distorted, or deliberately buried episodes of this past still burden our memory of the Second World War.
