520    Conscripted into the British Army in 1940, talented 
       journalist Anthony Cotterell was never going to be a 
       natural soldier. Seeing that his abilities lay elsewhere, 
       his superiors let him do what he did best—write. Within a 
       few years, he was one of the Army’s top journalists, 
       covering landmark engagements such as the D-Day landings, 
       and became well-known in both civilian and military 
       circles. He was then ordered to take part in the parachute
       drop at Arnhem in September 1944 as part of Operation 
       Market Garden; he would never come home. Taken prisoner 
       after the battle, on September 23, Major Cotterell was one
       of a group of British officers wounded when SS guards 
       opened fire on the unarmed men. He then vanished without 
       trace. In Major Cotterell at Arnhem, Jennie Gray tells the
       story of Cotterell’s mysterious disappearance, the SS war 
       crime and the subsequent three-year search mounted by the 
       War Crimes and Search Bureau, the British War Crimes Group,
       the Netherlands War Crime Commission and by his brother, 
       Geoffrey Cotterell. Complemented by Cotterell’s own 
       writings, official War Crime Group documentation and the 
       daily letters written by Geoffrey—an author himself and 
       with whose cooperation this book was written—it is a 
       fascinating and poignant story of one man lost in the 
       tumult of war.
