Heinrich Müller

Heinrich Müller was a German police and SS official who headed the Gestapo from 1939 until the final days of the Third Reich. As a senior official of the Reich Main Security Office, he was deeply involved in political repression, counter-intelligence and the Nazi persecution and murder of European Jews.

He disappeared in Berlin at the end of the war and his death is generally presumed to have occurred in May 1945. Heinrich Müller was the head of the Gestapo from 1939 until the collapse of Nazi Germany and a senior official of the Reich Main Security Office. Heinrich Müller was born in Munich, Germany and died in Berlin, Germany (presumed).

In John R. McKay’s In for the Kill, Gestapo chief Heinrich Müller appears under his historical identity as the senior official behind the security response, while his immediate subordinates and their contest with Harris are fictional.
