Présentation de l'éditeur

This is a story of a family, young love and betrayal, and the tragedy of war. The story revolves around three cousins-an English boy, a German boy, and a Dutch girl-and their upbringing between the wars. The boys' affection for each other is intense, but as they mature, the natural desire for the love of a girl complicates their lives. During the summer of 1932, when the three cousins are on holiday at their grandparents' country house near the small town of Grave in Brabant, an incident occurs that will have tragic repercussions during the Second World War when they are serving their countries.

Biographie de l'auteur

The author was born in Brighton, and, after 3 years at a small private school, attended the Brighton, Hove and Sussex Grammar School. He is married to Rita, to whom the book is dedicated, and has 3 children. He has lived and worked in Brighton all his life. He has a connection with Somerset and especially the area in the vicinity of Clevedon Court - the large fictional estate in Somerset is based on this house. His interest with both World Wars, the Hitler Youth Organisations and a visit to the small town of Grave in Holland, where the climax of this story takes place, has been a valuable asset in the creation of this novel.
