Description

The Second World War produced numerous acts of self-sacrifice, but it also made many people rich.

Under the cover of war, crime ranging from opportunistic looting to systematic theft was able to flourish. Donald Thomas draws on extensive archive material to reveal the ingenuity and sheer scale of wartime criminality, making fascinating reading of one of the great untold stories of the war. 'A mesmerising, unputdownable and brilliantly researched page-turner' Sunday Times
