1914. Outnumbered British forces are desperately trying to hold off
the oncoming German soldiers in France. Star shells fly high into
the night, illuminating the chaos, violence and death taking place
in the French trenches below. Like so many other men, Jim Hickman
and Bertie Murphy are plunged into this nightmare. As the war
progresses, Jim receives honour after honour, whilst Bertie sinks
deep into depression. And back home Polly, the girl they both love,
must choose between the two men.that is, if they ever come back
alive. As the trio are trapped in physical and mental torment, a
terrible tragedy befalls them. Wilcox perfectly captures the horror
and tragedy of the First World War in this vivid and moving novel.
