His book Hanns and Rudolf: The German Jew and the Hunt for the Kommandant of Auschwitz was a national bestseller in the UK, Italy and Israel and was chosen as a "Book of the Year" for 2013 by The Times, the Sunday Times, The Guardian, The Observer, the Daily Telegraph and the New Statesman. It was shortlisted for the 2013 Costa Book Awards and won the 2015 Jewish Quarterly-Wingate Prize for non-fiction. His next book, Kadian Journal, was published in 2014; it is about his son, who died in a cycling accident. Harding has done his boy proud and turned nightmare into art." The House by the Lake, an account of the five families, including his grandmother, who resided in a house in Berlin, was published in 2015. It was shortlisted for the Costa Book Awards and longlisted for the 2016 Orwell Prize. Hanns and Rudolf is a dual biography of Hanns Alexander and Rudolf Höss. In the aftermath of the Second World War, the first British War Crimes Investigation Team is assembled to hunt down the senior Nazi officials responsible for the greatest atrocities the world has ever seen. One of the lead investigators is Lieutenant Hanns Alexander, a German Jew who is now serving in the British Army. Rudolf Höss is his most elusive target. As Kommandant of Auschwitz, Höss not only oversaw the murder of more than one million men, women, and children; he was the man who perfected Hitler's program of mass extermination. Höss is on the run across a continent in ruins, the one man whose testimony can ensure justice at Nuremberg. The book received favorable reviews and it also received praised from historians. Hanns and Rudolf was a The Sunday Times bestseller in hardback and paperback in the UK, and a bestseller in Israel and Italy. It has been translated into more than eighteen languages. In May 2014 it was announced that Hanns and Rudolf had been optioned by The Ink Factory Films and that the company is in talks with Sir Ronald Harwood to adapt the book.
