Beschreibung:
Nate Hendley is a journalist and author of several books, primarily on crime-related subjects. His book, The Beatle Bandit (about a murderous 1964 bank heist) won the Crime Writers of Canada Award of Excellence for Non-Fiction in 2022. He lives in Toronto.
On June 27, 1918, a Canadian military hospital ship was torpedoed by U-Boat 86, a German submarine. The sub commander tried to kill all the survivors -- but failed. The attack was adjudicated at the Leipzig War Crimes Trials resulting in a historic legal precedent that guided subsequent war crime prosecutions.
