The bite of a small, fat mongrel dog led to a series of events that resulted in uncovering the story, identity and family of a British soldier killed in the First World War. Although Jewish, he had mistakenly been buried under a tombstone marked with a cross. Who was Private Finklestein? How and where was he killed? And why was he buried under a cross? Together with my father, I undertook a search for the answers to these questions -- a search that lasted ten years and ranged over three continents. We left no stone unturned until we solved this 70-year-old riddle.
