There is still a place for non-fiction. Still a place for true war stories. Still a place to celebrate the lives of heroes. The airmen, the men and women of the courageous evasion lines, the SOE and the armed resistance.

When I started researching ‘The Nazi Ghost Train’ I was not sure whether I could gather together the story after more than 80 years.

But I met and corresponded with some great people. Hunted through the archives. Read books and articles by many great researchers.

And now it is here – and it has captured the interest of readers in way that is beyond my wildest dreams.

The book describes the terror of being shot down on bombing missions, the fight to stay free and alive with the Gestapo on your trail, and the gut-wrenching horror of betrayal.

Within a few days of its UK & Ireland release it went to the top five in three Amazon charts and then reached number one in the airforce biographies chart.

And now – NOW! – it has made the Sunday Times bestseller list.

I am overwhelmed.

For someone who has written since they were a kid, this is a dream come true.

Thank you to everyone who has bought or supported the book.
