Synopsis

From the inside cover. ‘They say I’m dead. ‘One report has it I've been lured into Brazil and mown down by an Israeli assassination team. Another that my body has been dredged up from the bottom of the Iguaçu Falls, my throat slashed from ear to ear. ‘When these tales are disproved, they say that if I’m not dead now, I soon will be – like Stangl or Eichmann. They've already god rid of all my old friends. With me once or twice they've come close ….. ‘Oh yes, they’re clever, these romantic avengers of the so-called horrors of the Third Reich. But not clever enough. Let them come, I say. Let them come if they've stomach enough. I’ll bury them all’. With these chilling words the reader of Herbert Lieberman’s dramatic new novel is pitchforked into a world of total horror – the mind of Dr. Grigori, Angel of Death from Auschwitz, now holding sway over a corner of the corrupt, crumbling dictatorship of Paraguay. Using extensive research and with an uncanny understanding of its macabre subject mater, The Climate of Hell is a fiction based on fact. The story is of an attempt to assassinate a figure of unalloyed evil – one of the executors of the Final Solution who is still alive in Paraguay today. Brooding about Grigori in his jungle fastness is Asher, himself a violent man and by no means an official agent of Israeli intelligence. Their final confrontation is as terrifying as it is unexpected.
