The Paddock

Not much going on on this board, but this topic usually gets some comments or gives me some ideas.

I'm about 3/4 through "Death in the City of Light." The guy who wrote it is from Lexington and a former UK professor (not that it has anything to do with the story).

It's a true crime story about a doctor who was killing people during the Nazi occupation of Paris. A lot of them he'd just kill for meanness, but he was also a member of the French resistance and would take people's money (mostly Jews) to secretly get them out of the country, then he'd just kill them, throw them in a hole in his cellar and pour quick lime on them. Estimates are he killed 150 people or more. The Nazis covered it up for some reason that hasn't been made clear yet.
