Synopsis
Worcester, 1914. Two brothers. One promise: nobody gets left behind.
Raised in their father's timber yard on the banks of the Severn, Arthur and Teddy Miller are inseparable - bound by a boyhood vow made in an orchard den. When war comes, they enlist together, and side by side they endure the horrors of the Western Front. Arthur watches his brother become the finest soldier in the battalion: decorated, beloved, unbreakable.
Then, at Polygon Wood, a single shell buries Teddy alive. Arthur digs with his bare hands until his fingers bleed, but the ground yields nothing.
For two years after the Armistice, Arthur refuses to go home. Joining the Directorate of Graves Registration, he combs the mud of Flanders for the missing, driven by a single obsession: to find his brother's grave among hundreds of thousands, and bring him home.
When Arthur finally unearths the truth, he is met not with honour, but with the cold, immovable wall of military bureaucracy. Stripped of the evidence of Teddy's identity and facing a system determined to erase his brother's name forever, Arthur is forced to make an agonising choice.
Arthur must set in motion one of the most audacious acts of loyalty and deception in the history of the Great War - a quiet lieutenant's gamble that risks his honour, his freedom and his very soul.
In a nation mourning a million lost sons, how far will one man go to ensure the brother he loved is never truly forgotten?
Inspired by the real history of Britain's Unknown Warrior, From the Abyss to the Abbey is a powerful story of brotherhood, grief and the extraordinary lengths one man will go to so that someone he loves is never truly forgotten.
