    Die Macht des Bösen
    Wie beseitigt man den Mann mit dem eisernen Herzen? Vor dieser Frage stehen Jozef Gabcik (Jack Reynor) und Jan Kubis (Jack O’Connell), zwei Widerstandskämpfer, die im Rahmen der „Operation Anthropoid“ die Ermordung von Reinhard Heydrich planen. Dieser, angetrieben von seiner Frau Lina (Rosamund Pike), einer glühenden Nationalsozialistin, ist als stellvertretender Reichsprotektor von Böhmen und Mähren für die Ermordung vieler Tausend Juden verantwortlich. In dem Wissen, dass jede klitzekleine Unvorsichtigkeit tödlich sein kann, planen Gabcik und Kubis das Attentat. Doch die Nachricht einer geplanten Sabotage sickert bis zu Heydrich durch und ein nervenzerreißendes Katz- und Maus-Spiel nimmt seinen Lauf.

    Killing the Hangman , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 659min
    March, 1939. Stefan Mrak escorts a planeload of intelligence files from Prague to London. Before he can return, the Germans occupy Czechoslovakia, stranding Stefan in London. Stefan volunteers to parachute back into Prague as part of a sabotage team, hoping to find Marta, his wife, and help her escape to a neutral country. His application is rejected, because Stefan is a tin soldier. He wears a uniform, but he works at a desk and lacks the inner toughness needed for clandestine operations in an occupied country. Reinhard Heydrich, "the Hangman", is head of the Sicherheitsdienst and Gestapo, and schemes to become Führer if Hitler dies. When Poland surrenders, Heydrich sees a chance to move up in the Nazi hierarchy. For 10 weeks, he's in constant motion - exhorting, directing, ordering, living on Benzedrine and coffee. Factory managers, editors, and intellectuals are rounded up and shot by the thousands. Heydrich's reward is the governorship of Czechoslovakia - which he intends to treat just like Poland. Heydrich's draconian measures drive Czech Intelligence to train a team to assassinate him, but one member breaks a leg just days before the parachute drop. A German-speaking officer is urgently needed to replace the injured man. The choice falls on Stefan, who must overcome his nature and do what's required to save Marta, himself, and his country. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: James G. Pattillo.

    The Hangman and His Wife (eBook, ePUB)
    An astonishing journey into the heart of Nazi evil: a portrait of one of the darkest figures of Hitler's Nazi elite-Reinhard Heydrich, the designer and executor of the Holocaust, chief of the Reich Main Security, including the Gestapo-interwoven with commentary by his wife, Lina, from the author's in-depth interviews. He was called the Hangman of the Gestapo, the "butcher of Prague," with a reputation as a ruthlessly efficient killer. He was the head of the SS, and the Gestapo, second in command to Heinrich Himmler. His orders set in motion the Kristallnacht pogrom of 1938 and, as the lead planner of Hitler's Final Solution, he chaired the Wannsee Conference, at which details of the murder of millions of Jews across Nazi-occupied Europe were toasted with cognac. In The Hangman and His Wife, Nancy Dougherty, and, following her death, Christopher Lehmann-Haupt, masterfully explore who Heydrich was and how he came to be, and how he came to do what he did. We see Heydrich from his rarefied musical family origins and his ugly-duckling childhood and adolescence, to his sudden flameout as a promising Naval officer (he was forced to resign his Naval commission after dishonoring the office corps by having sex with the unmarried daughter of a shipyard director and refusing to marry her). Dougherty writes of his seemingly hopeless job prospects as an untrained civilian during Germany's hyperinflation and unemployment, and his joining the Nazi party through the attraction to Nazism of his fiancée, Lina von Osten, and her father, along with the rumor shadowing him of a strain of Jewishness inherited from his father's side. And we follow Heydrich's meteoric rise through the Nazi high command-from SS major, to colonel to brigadier general, before he was thirty, deputy to Heinrich Himmler, expanding the SS, the Gestapo, and developing the Reich's plans for "the Jewish solution." And throughout, we hear the voice of Lina Heydrich, who was by his side until his death at the age of thirty-eight, living inside the Nazi inner circles as she waltzed with Rudolf Hess, feuded with Hermann Göring, and drank vintage wine with Albert Speer.

    Mendelssohn auf dem Dach
    Heydrich tobt. Gerade erst hat der "Reichsprotektor von Böhmen und Mähren" das ehrwürdige Konzerthaus Rudolfinum zum "Haus der deutschen Kunst" umwidmen lassen, da entdeckt er unter den Komponistenstatuen auf dem Dach einen Juden: Mendelssohn-Bartholdy.Der SS-Anwärter Julius Schlesinger erhält den Befehl, sich um dessen Beseitigung zu kümmern. Aber das ist schwieriger als gedacht. Denn erstens ist er nicht schwindelfrei und will nicht aufs Dach. Und zweitens finden die beiden mitgebrachten Tschechen, Becvár und Stankovský, nicht heraus, wer der Fragliche ist - denn die Statuen tragen keine Namen.Da hat Schlesinger eine Idee: Eben erst hat er gelernt, dass Juden die größten Nasen hätten. Zufrieden glaubt er seine Aufgabe erfüllt zu haben, als er die beiden wieder losschickt - zu Richard Wagner.Was so komisch beginnt, wird im Laufe des Buchs ein großes, immer dunkleres und beklemmenderes Bild Prags und seiner Bewohner unter der deutschen Besatzung. Jirí Weil erzählt vonder Verfolgung und Deportation der Juden, dem Wüten von SS, Gestapo und Wehrmacht, von Kollaboration und Bereicherung, aber auch von Widerstand und dem Attentat auf Heydrich. Je größer die Hoffnung auf ein Ende wird, desto mehr verengt sie sich zur Aussichtslosigkeit.
