Blood brothers, 2015: ECIP (Ernst Haffner) data view (German journalist and social worker; his only known novel, Blutsbrüder, was published in 1932 and banned by the Nazis the next year; in the 1940s, all records of Haffner disappeared; his fate during World War II remains unknown)
Wikipedia, 10-16-2014: (Ernst Haffner; a German social worker, journalist, and novelist whose only novel, Blood Brothers (originally titled Young People on the Berlin High Road), was published in 1932 to critical acclaim by Bruno Cassirer and banned by the Nazis one year later; sometime over the course of WWII, all traces of Haffner were lost, including any professional and personal records that may have helped to indicate what led to his disappearance; there is just a single entry for him in the Berlin registry, where Haffner lived between 1925 and 1933; at the end of the 1930s, it is documented that he was summoned to appear at the Nazi Reichsschrifttumskammer (a writer's union affiliated with the Third Reich), after which the details of his life remain unknown; published in the last year before Hitler's rise to power, it received a notable review by famed sociologist and philosopher Siegfried Kracauer in Frankertur Zeitung upon publication)
