About the Book

In 1994 Alan Stoob is clearing his desk in advance of early retirement. He is 57-years-old and has enjoyed a moderately successful career with the Bedfordshire Constabulary. But when Simon Wiesenthal, the world's leading Nazi Hunter, invites him to Vienna and implores him to hunt Nazis in the Luton area, Alan cannot resist the challenge. Fast forward to 2012 and Alan is down on his luck. Following a failed pursuit of a Nazi in Whipsnade Zoo he is taunted by Interpol and his position as Britain's Premier Nazi Hunter is under threat. Though his marriage appears solid he remains haunted by his wife's past infidelity. Meanwhile their 42-year-old son has moved back home, still unable to function properly after being jilted by his girlfriend back in 1987. Subsequent to a tipoff from a mystery informant Alan is drawn into a Nazi plot that implicates the coalition government, the Prime Minister and stretches all the way up to the President of the United States. Alan is forced to go undercover - but will someone discover his true identity?

About the Author :
Saul was born in London at some point during the 1970s. At the age of three he moved from Holborn to Harpenden. Concerned for his wellbeing, his parents followed him there two weeks later. Saul's early years were noteworthy for his ability to run fast, an obsessive interest in cricket and the early signs of the chronic snoring that was to dog his later years. At university he acquired a reputation for being half-Jewish, and a penchant for donner meat with chips extra chilli sauce please. After uni he moved to Brighton to busk for a living, much to the almighty chagrin of his father. Since then Saul has spent an impressive amount of his adult life in gainful employment, and an equally impressive amount in the bath. His career in sales spanned nearly a decade but in the end he just didn't have the handshake. He has been a freelance journalist since 2005 which means more time for baths again. Saul's writing oscillates between humour and straight journalism. Recently he has written features for the Guardian, sketches for the BBC and regular columns for Metro, Square Mile and the Ham & High - all the while penning jokes for 118118 and fronting nationwide campaigns on behalf of Vodafone.

Review :
Alan Stoob is a creation of comic genius. - Jon Ronson Alan Stoob is the Nazi-Hunter de nos jours. If you haven't seen any Nazis on the streets of Dunstable latterly it is entirely down to his tireless efforts. - Charlie Higson Alan Stoob is the funniest and most effective Bedfordshire-based Nazi Hunter I've come across. - Stephen Mangan
