How could the responsible German offiser, Lothar Rendulic, avoid a sentence during the war trial in Nürnberg? And how did ordinary people deal with “Scorched-earth”? Jaklin delivers the answers.  \n“Probably the most important book to be published in Norway this year.”  \nSolgunn Solli, Altaposten  \n“... moving, closeup portraits, most of them of ordinary people, seldom have we come so close to the drama and the suffering ...”  \nJohan O.
