The terrifying true story of SS henchmen on a bloody quest for final victory!

'Suspenseful ... illuminating' Publishers Weekly

Perfect for readers of Max Hastings, Ben Macintyre and Alex Kershaw.

By 1944, just as the Allies were pressing onwards and overwhelming the German forces, Heinrich Himmler was devising a new way to strike back against their enemies: 'where they believe they have conquered us, new resistance will spring up behind their backs time and time again... and like werewolves, brave as death, volunteers will strike the enemy.'

Shortly after this speech Himmler formed Unternehem Werwolf (Enterprise Werewolf), a secret guerrilla force to fight behind enemy lines. Their mission was to terrorize and murder - not only the Allies but fellow Germans who might collaborate with the enemy.

Charles Whiting charts in chilling detail the story of how a team of five men and one woman were recruited and trained by SS General Gutenberger before being tasked to kill Franz Oppenoff, the new Mayor of Aachen and the first German mayor under American occupation, who was seen by the Nazis as an American stool-pigeon and traitor.

Hitler's Werewolves provides vivid insight into the tension that prevailed on both sides during the final months of World War Two when this desperate German strategy was launched to sow fear amongst the invading forces.
