“A well-written, fascinating biography of one Jewish man in front of the very worst of the Nazi hierarchy. A picture not just of the German war criminals at Nuremberg, but of one individual’s extraordinary wartime story.”—Christian Jennings, author of The Holocaust Codes “Fry has chronicled the lives of many Jewish refugees who worked for the Allies. None, however, were quite like Triest’s: a man who knew evil like few others could grasp. A compelling and important story, based upon five years of interviews.”—Trudy Gold, former CEO of the London Jewish Cultural Centre “I could not put it down. It makes fascinating reading.”—Dr T.
