Neil Hanson Author

Mike Anderson is a senior employee of one of the world's oldest private banks. He considers himself fortunate to have stumbled across this extraordinary true story and has been relentless in his pursuit of the tale of Britain's only successful war crimes prosecution and the parallel lives of Ben-Zion Blustein and Anthony Sawoniuk.  Neil Hanson is the author of a dozen acclaimed works of narrative non-fiction, including The Unknown Soldier, The Confident Hope of a Miracle, The Custom of the Sea and The Dreadful Judgement. They have been hailed by critics around the world as 'astonishing', 'brilliant', 'haunting', 'extraordinary', 'a triumph' and 'a masterpiece', and compared by one to 'Siegfried Sassoon, Robert Graves and a dozen other immortals'.
