Opis

A serial killer does not operate in a vacuum; rather he conducts his crimes against a backdrop of what is often described as normal society, but when that normality is affected by war, be it civil or international, his detection is made even more difficult. When eighteen-year-old Hugh McCall and his best friends from Larne, a small town in County Antrim, Ireland, enlisted in Kitchener's Army in August 1914, they dreamt of becoming warriors and heroes. Their romantic views a reflection of the spirit of the times. Their story tells how they overcame brutality and cruelty by sticking to the principles of friendship, loyalty and love, and how these principles were threatened through the application of uncontrolled evil. Set in the battlefields of WW1 and in the Civil War that defined early twentieth century Ireland, the reader is taken through a series of individual struggles with adversity that comes to an explosive conclusion.
