An in-person in the library or online for a conversation with William Geroux, author of The Fifteen: Murder, Retribution, and the Forgotten Story of Nazi POWs in America. Learn about the revelatory true story of the long-forgotten POW camps for German soldiers erected in hundreds of small U.S. towns during World War II, and the secret Nazi killings that ensnared fifteen brave American POWs in a high-stakes showdown.

Drawing on extensive research, Geroux shines a spotlight on a story of murder and high-stakes diplomacy, and on fifteen American lives that hung in the balance—from a fearless P-51 Mustang fighter pilot to a hot-tempered lieutenant colonel nicknamed “King Kong.” Propulsive and vividly rendered, The Fifteen reminds us that what happens to soldiers after they exit the battlefield can be just as harrowing as what they experience on it.
