Mine Own Executioner is a 1945 psychological thriller by the English novelist Nigel Balchin, and is the novel most often associated with the author. It was the most popular of Balchin's three war-time novels, following earlier successes he had had with Darkness Falls from the Air (1942) and The Small Back Room (1943), both of which had already acquired status as contemporary social documents.
The novel was adapted into a 1947 film and into a 1960 Australian TV play.
