About the author
Greg Lewis
8 books5 followersWas given a typewriter for my tenth birthday. Drove my parents mad while they were trying to watch the TV.
Been writing ever since. Lifetime in journalism, first as an investigative reporter and then as a documentary-maker, working mainly in the true crime genre.
I'm still typing. And still with two fingers.
My most recent book is the Sunday Times bestseller 'The Nazi Ghost Train', a true story of betrayal and evasion in occupied Europe. It's out in the States very soon.
My previous books include 'Defying Hitler: The Germans Who Resisted Nazi Rule' (Dutton Books, Penguin Random House) and 'Shadow Warriors: Daring Missions By Women of the OSS and SOE' with Gordon Thomas, which has been published in five countries.
'Defying Hitler' was a top-five pick in both USA Today and the New York Post. It was described by New York Times bestselling author Alex Kershaw as a “terrifying and timely account of resistance in the face of the greatest of evils”.
'Shadow Warriors' was optioned for a film/mini-series. Clare Mulley (Agent Zo, The Women Who Flew for Hitler) said it was: “Riveting… What gives this book weight is the interweaving of the SOE and OSS narratives, all too often divorced in histories of the secret war.”
My work with Gaynor Madgwick helped gather many memories of those involved in the Aberfan disaster and formed the basis of the book 'Aberfan: A Story of Survival, Love and Community in One of Britain's Worst Disasters' which had inspired a new television drama.
Many thanks to everyone who has contacted me about my books.
