Bill Brown was a wounded veteran of the Boer War, a police sergeant and a pillar of the community in the small town of Acaster. What son wouldn’t love and be proud of such a father? But what happens when Jack finds out the truth about his father?
This is the story of two friends, one sister, one vengeful father and one Great War. It is a story that spans some six decades and in particular the years 1914-1918.
David Johnson’s compelling tale seamlessly blurs fact and fiction and is supported by the same careful research that underpins his non-fiction books: “One Man and Hitler/The Man Who Didn’t Shoot Hitler” and “Executed at Dawn: British Firing Squads on the Western Front 1914–1918” (The History Press) and his previous novel The Death of Comrade Romanov.
David Johnson lives in Stratford upon Avon.
