The Night of the Generals
A German intelligence officer attempts to identify the man responsible for two brutal murders in Nazi-occupied Warsaw and Paris - the evidence points to one of three Nazi generals.
German intelligence officer Major Grau attempts to identify the man responsible for two brutal murders in countries occupied by the Nazis during World War II. The evidence in the 1942 murder of a Warsaw prostitute points to one of three Nazi generals, but Grau is posted to Paris where, in 1944, an almost identical crime is committed.
