In Chapter one Dr Mengele or Mr Aspiazu had booked a room in a restaurant for seven persons. He gives orders to his guests to kill ninety-four men all over the world.

When he opened the door two men came in and killed him because they knew that he made a tape recording during their meeting in the Japanese restaurant.

In chapter two Lieberman was talking about what kind of person Dr Mengele was. And he said that he was called the Doctor of Death in the concentration camp Auschwitz
He did terrible things with people. He tried to change brown eyes into blue and other experiments and after that he killed them .

Chapter three is mainly aubout the investigations of Lieberman. During those investigations he discovers the reason why Mengele wants to kill the ninety-four men. After visiting several families where a sixty-five year old man has been killed he discovers similarities. All the women have about the same age and have an adopted son. All the killed men were civil-servants
The boys also have the same age and they all look the same. After consulting a biologist he eventually comes to the conclusion that Mengele has succeeded in cloning people. It also appears that all the boys are a clone from Adolf Hitler. Hitlers father was also a civil-servant and he died when Hitler was about fifteen years old. Mengele wanted the boys to grow up in about the same circumstances as Adolf Hitler
