Set in the dales, this new novel for teenagers by NAWE member June Oldham is about a boy's search for his grandfather who is roaming the countryside in distress...
An out of date map and a journal written by his grandfather take Rigby into another place and time: Normandy, 1944. And, learning something of the experience of warfare, Rigby is caught up in his own inner quest.
This is June Oldham's fourteenth novel and is published by Hodder in Signature, £5.99. ISBN 0 340 86653 5
'Oldham is a thrilling writer, poised, precise and evocative.' Times Educational Supplement
