Publisher's Synopsis
Past and present collide for the last time as Vilém Rehor, a night guard with the strange ability to speak to spirits, finds himself facing the wicked spirit of the Nazi Kommandant Hans Gerber.
A new exhibit is set to open in the Camp, an exhibit dedicated to survivors of the Holocaust-an exhibit that is sure to anger the vicious ghost of the Kommandant. Vilém's fiancée begs him to keep his distance lest he become yet another victim of the murderous Kommandant...but Vilém won't let the Nazi hurt anyone else.
Desperate to get rid of the ghost before the new exhibit opens, Vilém turns to the spirit of Reinhard Heydrich, the Architect of the Holocaust. The Hangman of Prague reluctantly gives Vilém enough information to coax Kommandant Gerber into speaking with him. But Heydrich's confession is shocking: Kommandant Hans Gerber, the fanatical Nazi, had a Jewish brother.
Armed with this revelation, Vilém confronts Gerber's ghost, eager to finally discover the full truth...but to do so, he must delve into the memories of a monster.
Barrack One is a thought-provoking, heartbreaking tale of the Holocaust, the conclusion to The Barracks Series.
