Cathyrn J. Prince is the author of several non-fiction books including Death in the Baltic: The WWII Sinking of the Wilhelm Gustloff, for which she won the 2013 Military Writers Society of America's Founders Award.
Tells one of the great, dark secrets of World War II: neutral Switzerland shot down US aircraft entering Swiss airspace and imprisoned the survivors in internment camps, detaining more than a thousand American flyers. Details of this little-known episode are brought to light by Cathryn Prince, who tells what happened and examines the argument the Swiss used to justify their policy.
