The extraordinary revelations in Traitors detail the ugly side of war and power and the many betrayals of our ANZACs.

In October 1943, Winston Churchill, Franklin D. Roosevelt, and Josef Stalin signed a solemn pact that once their enemies were defeated, the Allied powers would "pursue them to the uttermost ends of the earth and will deliver them to their accusers in order that justice may be done". Nowhere did they say that justice would be selective. But it would prove to be.

Traitors outlines the treachery of the British, American, and Australian governments, who turned a blind eye to those who experimented on Australian prisoners of war. Journalist and bestselling author Frank Walker details how Nazis hired by ASIO were encouraged to settle in Australia and how the Catholic Church, CIA, and MI6 helped the worst Nazi war criminals escape justice.

While our soldiers were asked to risk their lives for King and country, Allied corporations traded with the enemy; Nazi and Japanese scientists were enticed to work for Australia, the US, and UK; and Australia's own Hollywood hero Errol Flynn was associating with Nazi spies.

After reading this book you can't help but wonder, what else did they hide?

About the Author

Frank Walker has been an Australian journalist and foreign correspondent in Germany and the United States for forty years, covering wars and coups, floods and fires, terrorist attacks and political brawls, movie stars and street crime. His first two bestselling books - The Tiger Man of Vietnam and Ghost Platoon - revealed uncomfortable truths about Australia's actions in the Vietnam War. His third bestselling book, Maralinga, lifted the veil of secrecy thrown over the British atomic bomb tests in the outback and shocking human experiments in Australia in the 1950s and 1960s. His fourth book, Commandos, examined the most daring secret raids behind enemy lines by Australians and New Zealanders in World War II. In 2017 Frank wrote Traitors, an expose on how Australia and its allies betrayed our Anzacs and let Nazi and Japanese war criminals go free. His most recent book is The Scandalous Life of Freddie McEvoy: The true story of the swashbuckling Australian rogue.
