Rating: Summary: captivating summer reading Review: This is a very interesting book to take with you on vacation -- there is no chance you will get bored. It is not a piece of literature that requires great deals of concentration. No way! But it is an easy-to-read and captivating story, which shows that Ira Levin has plenty of imagination and a gift for creating suspense. The story takes place in 1974 and involves Dr. Mengele, known as the Angel of Death, a famous figure in the concentration camp of Auschwitz during World War II. In the story, he is involved in a crazy and revolutionary project, designed to lay new seeds for the Aryan dominance in the world. I admire the writer's gift for creating vivid dialogue and a well built story so compelling that it was difficult for me to put the book aside, just what I wanted for perfect reading at the seaside.
