Work Description
"On a warm autumn day in 2006, on the Isle of Wight, Jack Luxton, former Devon farmer and now the proprietor or a seaside caravan park, receives the news that his soldier brother Tom, not seen for years, has been killed in Iraq. For Jack and his wife Ellie this will have a potentially catastrophic impact. For Jack in particular it means a crucial journey--to receive his brother's remains, but also into his own most secret, troubling memories and into the land of his and Ellie's past."--P. [2] of jacket.
