However, before any confrontation is possible, someone turns Siegried into a corpse. Needless to say, it doesn’t take long for a curious case to finds its way into his lap: Siegried Witzel, a former Wehrmacht soldier has claimed some rather large losses, and it seems as if they might be the belongings of Greek Jews deported to Auschwitz. The story begins with Bernie getting himself a new name as Christoph Ganz and finding a job as a claims adjuster for a major German insurance company. In yet another one of his twisted adventures, titled Greeks Bearing Gifts, Bernie sets out on the trail of stolen spoils of war only to be met with a challenge far more dangerous than he could have ever anticipated. Needless to say, this creates a canvas ripe for the imaginative abilities of many authors, and few have made as good a use of it as Philip Kerr in his Bernie Gunther series. For months, years and decades people dedicate their lives to hunting those criminals down and bringing them to some form of justice, however symbolic and ethereal it might be in the end. Wars seldom end when the peace accord is signed, and for the countless crimes committed relatively few tend to get punished.
