A gripping adventure in an exciting new series reflecting the authentic, unsung stories of our past!

"The superb Voices series takes unsung heroes of the past and imagines them recounting the story of their remarkable lives' " - The Times

Now or Never brings a young soldier, Private Fazal Khan, from his home in India to the battlefields of the Second World War.

Fazal's world is now focused on Company 32 and the animals he cares for in the midst of one of the most frightening times in history. And as he and his friends make their way to the beaches of Dunkirk, Fazal must deal with even more than the terrors of a dangerous trek to reach the evacuation zone.

The Company's captain defends his troops in the face of a terrible betrayal at the point of rescue: not everyone has welcomed the help brought by the Royal Indian Army Service Corps. Now Fazal is forced to question why he is even there and why he is expected to be loyal to a king whose people don't all see him as their equal.

Each shows that, even in times of great upheaval, a myriad of people have arrived on this island and made a home for themselves - from Roman times to the present day.
