ASPECTED,RETIRED BUSINESSMAN IN WINNIPEG, well liked by his neighbors, is shattered
when he receives mysterious photographs
in the maii, photos of him as a young man in his
SS uniform.
The Special Prosecutions Unit in Ottawa is
dedicated to investigating and indicting Nazi
war criminals in Canada. However. they never
manage to successfully prosecute a single one.
Dozens of lawyers, historians, policemen, and
clerks amass hundreds of files on suspects,
most of whom inconveniently die. Increasing-
ly demoralized by the prospect of the inevitable
closing of the unit. many-at the SPU begin to
look forward to the prospect of prosecuting
criminals who are not wheelchair bound. Dens
nis Connor. a historian, is eventually left as the
last employee of the SPU, charged with the clos-

But one file he cannot give up. The crimes
Friedrich Reile committed with an SS unit on
the eastern front are so terrible that Connor

seventeen-year-old boy gradually turns into a
war criminal, a mass murder.But Retie, for
all his monstrous crimes, is not a monster.Just

inshiningarmor, is, infact, a cynical bureaucrat
leading a joyless life. By showing the human
aspect Of both these men, Peter brings a
new, deeper element into what could have been
