The Apt Pupil / Stephen King / 194 pages

Todd discovers that a Nazi officer involved in the concentration camps under Hitler lives nearby.  He has researched the man and wants to know more.  He goes to the man's house and, at first, he denies his past.  Todd threatens to expose him and the two develop a symbiotic relationship.  Kenker is exposed, but Todd does not turn him in.  This tale of depravity well-hidden and dishonesty revealed is typical Stephen King.
