‘But if you’d seen what this country was like immediately after the war ended, you’d think this was a breeze, kid. All the roads were heaving with foreign slave workers trying to find their way back home. Everywhere we went there were distraught parents trying to find their children and lost kids trying to find their mums and dads. And on top of it all, there were goddamn scared-shitless Nazis sneaking back and trying to find a place to hide away and pretend it was nothing to do with them.’
