South Australia, 1914
When war against Germany erupts on the other side of the earth, a huge wave of suspicion, prejudice and persecution floods the community. There’s even a harsh concentration camp built for men branded as enemy aliens. Here in Adelaide, five diverse people are made vulnerable by the war.
Elsie, gifted and ambitious child pianist, with German ancestry.
Oskar, famous sportsman and businessman, also with German origins.
Wilfred, a caring Anglican parish priest, opposed to the war.
Pansy, an outsider by her very nature, but a fighter for justice to others.
Little Neddy, a poor communicator with people, yet a prodigious singer with birds in the scrub.
Each must confront outer enemies and inner problems. As corpses pile high in faraway Europe, the lives of the five protagonists intertwine, and friendships form. How will they meet the challenge of this time of war?
This skilfully written novel is based on verifiable historical facts. As you read, you will walk in the shoes of finely-etched characters in Book Two of the series A South Australian Saga.Die Inhaltsangabe kann sich auf eine andere Ausgabe dieses Titels beziehen.
