About the book!
Jack was determined not to be trapped in the black hell
hole of the Deepcar mines like his father and finally,
escapes to join the elite force of the British army, the
Coldstream Guards, where he carries his father's boxing
skills to the ultimate heights and then experiences a
love and passion he didn't know could exist, changing
his life forever.
His love is left behind as his Division leads the
British Expedition Forces off to a war to end all wars,
facing unbelievable horrors. Trying to survive in an
insane world of terror, slaughter and constant death.
Annie was born in the poor house and raised in poverty,
neglected and cast aside by her mother. Torn from her
grandfather at a young age, the only person who had ever
loved her, and raised in a Dr. Barnardo's home where
death came to seek her. Fighting to survive and finally
finding a love that could cost her her life.
Two people whose lives were set on a collision course
that was filled with loneliness, misery, pain and
heartache, tempered by passion and love. Based on real
people who laid the foundation for a new generation.
