Meer over het boek

Set in post-WW2 Edinburgh, the narrative follows 70-year-old Craig Erskine on his poignant return to his birthplace after decades in Australia. Revisiting his childhood home, he reflects on a near-death experience, family betrayal, and the secretive manipulation of an International Welfare Organisation. The story intertwines with Alenti Pawlowski, a Polish soldier overlooked after the war, and Craig's friendship with Old Mac, a veteran of WWI. These connections profoundly shape Craig's understanding of loyalty and conflict, leaving him emotionally drained upon his return to Australia.
