The Auschwitz Protocol

Retired US Detective Emil Janowitz lied to his wife for nearly forty years. Having lost his entire family whilst an inmate of Auschwitz-Birkenau it was simply easier on his soul to invent a past than face up to the demons buried deep inside. Life was good, but then the mail arrived bringing a letter which would result in a voyage of discovery, denunciation and confrontation with the past. Life is a journey, history should not be forgotten, the evil still exists.

The Belsen Files

The wartime files retrieved from the loft of a former camp guard at Belsen provide a name and a cropped photo of a meeting with Martin Bormann, Hitler's personal secretary and the second most influential man in the Nazi Party. The problem is that even the world renowned Nazi hunters, the Wiesenthal Centre, haven’t heard the name before and no one knows what its owner looked like. Trying to find the answer will take the investigators down a dark path of human experimentation, gene manipulation and the possibilities of the rise of a Fourth Reich..

About Jack
Dan Wheatcroft

Jack Carnegie has a passion for writing that began at an early age. After a childhood brought up on the streets of Liverpool where everyone has a tale to tell, it was inevitable that his upbringing would come out in one form or another.

As a young lad, he and a number of friends ventured into music, forming the bands, ‘Tested and Approved’ and ‘Gripweed’, the latter named after John Lennon’s character in the film ‘How I Won the War’. They wrote their own songs and Jack found writing lyrics came easy, although as a musician he knew he had a long way to go but it was the writing he was good at and enjoyed the most. Sadly, the world was denied the joys of Tested and Approved and Gripweed and like many aspiring bands they went their own ways, open to life catching up with them in the form of families, mortgages and 9 to 5s. But Jack never lost the love of writing and harboured an ambition for many years before summoning up the courage to write a novel. It was whilst working as a taxi driver that he wrote his first book, ‘The Blink of an Eye’.

Whilst waiting for fares on various taxi ranks or taking a break in a cafe, he scribbled the notes that he would later convert to the story of the George family and their journey from sleepy town Sweet Water, Alabama, into the nuclear age. A city break in Krakow, Poland, provided the impetus for his second book, ‘The Auschwitz Protocol’ when a visit to Auschwitz-Birkenau focused his mind on the enormity of what happened there. This was followed by a sequel, ‘The Architect’ about the continuing hunt for Nazis who had escaped justice.

To date, Jack has added to these novels with two more books about the inhabitants of Sweet Water, ‘Into the Blue’, the story of a young man’s journey to fulfil a dream to become an astronaut and ‘The Way Home’ which returns us to the welcoming arms of the George family as we follow them through the trials and tribulations of the Vietnam War days.

I think it’s time I let Jack say something about himself: “As a new writer, I’ve learned a lot from a fellow author and friend. He more than anybody believed in me. The process of writing books is not easy and I don’t always get it right but my friend is a good sounding board and is not afraid to be honest. I’ve taken it all on board, from writing, proof reading and making my own book covers. I’m now building my own website. I give it everything, one hundred per cent. If you’re going to do something do it the best you can, no half measures. My goal is to become a full-time writer, my passion is historical fiction and I hope what I write does justice to the memory of those who came before us.”

Jack lives in Liverpool with his partner Carol.

kind words from readers
Michele Berggren of Good Reads
This book was nothing short of incredible. I have read many books about the horrors of the Holocaust and in all my years of prolific reading I would rate it to be one of the most incredible Holocaust stories that I have ever read. Mr. Carnegie has written a brilliant book - the story of an Auschwitz survivor who spent his lifetime trying to deal with the horrors he faced daily and the loss of his entire family at the hands of the Nazis. The story follows a young Emil and his family through the ordeal of being delivered and processed into the camp. The circumstances of each of their deaths and his feelings of pain as he realized what was happening was positively heart wrenching and written with such effort as to not just reveal the horror, but to make crystal clear what lifelong pain and trauma was inflicted on them. Mr. Carnegie is not only an excellent writer, but an incredible historian as well. The Auschwitz Protocol is a fitting tribute to not only those whose lives were taken from them, but to those who "survived." The Auschwitz Protocol exposes readers to a very frank, heart wrenching story which I suspect will have a profound impact on their previous opinions and knowledge of the Holocaust. This book has surpassed my rating of 5 stars.
