title: Hitler's Priest
author:  S.J. Tagliareni 
description: ''Hitler's Priest, a captivating novel, offers its readers more than an eyeopening and potent story: this book contains profound observations and unforgettable life lessons. Thank you, S. J. Tagliareni, for giving us this important novel.'' --Arthur Kurzweil, American author, educator, editor, writer, publisher, and illusionist<br /><br />''Hitler's Priest is a stunning novel with many fascinating twists and turns.'' --Joseph J. Pittelli, MD, Former executive VP, Wyeth Pharmaceutical<br /><br />''A gripping story of treachery, heroism, and life-altering choices.'' --Aaron T. Beck, MD, Institute for Cognitive Therapy<br /><br />When one is drawn closer to evil, at what point do you react and try to pull away? Hitler's Priest is a novel that delves into the nature of humanity when faced with the evil of the Holocaust. S. J. Tagliareni, an ex-Catholic priest, provides a different perspective on the Catholic involvement in the Holocaust. Hitler's Priest is riveting and very hard to put down, highly recommended. -Midwest Book Review, July 2012
