It's New Zealand, 1914, and the Great War is raging on battlefields in Europe. King and Country are calling! William eagerly enlists for the army but his younger brother, Edmund, is opposed to the whole idea of war and he refuses to join up.
While William trains to be a soldier, Edmund is arrested and put in prison as a conscientious objector. Both brothers discover that the shocking realities of war are a far cry from what they had imagined.
And what they experience challenges each of their tightly-held beliefs to the maximum.
This book is a triple award-winner by acclaimed New Zealand writer of YA fiction, David Hill.
