Tony Hough's war started with ski training in the Alps in early 1940 preparing for winter warfare in Finland. Nothing came of that. Later that year, back with 9th Battalion, The Rifle Brigade, he sailed for North Africa. In March 1941, his under-gunned Battalion suffered a catastrophic baptism of fire in Libya from 15,000 troops and 500 tanks of Rommel's Afrika Korps. For the next 18 months Hough and his Battalion experienced brutal conflict against a formidable enemy. Selected for David Stirling's elite 1st Special Air Service (SAS), he was captured in December 1942 while raiding behind enemy lines. Sent to an Italian POW camp he suffered the deprivations of captivity. Taking advantage of the September 1943 Italian Armistice, he and fellow POWs escaped. After an arduous three month ordeal, he reached Allied lines thanks to the help of brave locals. He went on to fight in North West Europe before becoming a Town Major in occupied Germany. Beautifully and modestly written, Tony's many and varied experiences make for a classic war memoir. It is heartening that even after 75 years, accounts such as this are still appearing.

"Madrid, 1984." Spain is emerging from the gloom of Franco's dictatorship, blinking at the gleam of freedom. Widows in permanent black stare, horrified, at shrieking teens in miniskirts. Soldiers read furtively from once-banned books. Light and dark coexist, from the shimmer of Spain's summer playgrounds to the cold caves of Basque terrorists. The giddy nightlife sprees, the bullfights and the feasts and the chilling jolt of a coup d'etat await a group of young expatriates.

Some come looking for fun, some for a future. Some are looking for Hemingway. Kevin, a New York City transplant, is looking for a whole new life. Follow his trials and triumphs throughout Spain, to London, Paris, New York, and Mexico City, as he chooses between sweet, safe love, and reckless, savage passion.

When Kevin finally feels he's got it all, he loses it in one tragic instant. And, if he can be saved at all, it will only be by the redemptive powers of Spain.
