SUMMARY
To Hell then home again
Charlie's mother and father work at a Spitfire factory in
the fishing port of Hamble. After a run in with a brutal
instructor on the naval training ship Mercury, the
teenager finds himself on the run from the British navy.
His father hooks him up with William - the Captain of the
a fishing boat called the White Feather. A few days
later, the pair find themselves caught up in the most
heroic retreat of WW2 - the Dunkirk evacuation.
EXTRACT
"We're nearer hell than home now Charlie," the great
man said, as we looked to the huge pillars of smoke,
that spiraled above the beaches. We were there to save
the soldiers; little did I know that soon I would need
rescuing myself from the Demons of Dunkirk.
