Family Tree – Spy Review:
This Book takes the brutality of war, and creates an Adventure story. It follows the collision of the lives of two people. People from two distinct backgrounds, following two distinct paths in life, and it delivers unexpected consequences. War is a time that threatens many lives, and the lineage of many families. The Book follows the fragile relationship between members of a family during war time.
The book opens with a small group of American soldiers making their way ashore in the aftermath of the opening morning of D-Day, World War 2, 1944. As the soldiers bed in for the night, a dishevelled British soldier, appearing lost and confused, is found on the beaches. This British soldier and the American soldiers are bought together by their Commanding Office, and offered the opportunity to re-ignite a task that had been written off in the chaos of the early morning on D-Day.
In present day, a teenage boy is taking part in a game of hunt and chase in a local Forest that leads to a dangerous close. He is rescued by his friends, and revived in Hospital, but on awakening shares with his parents his prominent role in an unusual dream.
A young German mother is forced to abandon her two girls, and join in the oppression of War torn Europe. She arrives in London, determined to find her way home, but must first complete the task assigned by her unbalanced Controller. She taunts and wins the heart of a troubled British solider, and following him to Scotland, seeks information that will lead her to escape, back to Germany and her daughters.
A British soldier searches for the chance to forget his past, and arrange his own death through glory and self destruction. But he meets a beautiful woman, and while in Scotland falls in love, and begins to question the route in life he has forged for himself.
The timing of escape for the German mother is accelerated as she finds she is pregnant. She makes a calculated decision to protect the life of her unborn son. In the aftermath she devastates the life of the Soldier who immediately sinks back into his search for self destruction.
On instruction form their absent mother, two German girls leave the sanctuary of their home town, and join refugees fleeing from East Germany. They make their way to an agreed meeting place, and are lucky to find the safety of an orphanage run by a sympathetic German couple.
Pursued by her Controller, the German woman races across Germany to meet her children. They lose themselves within the dislocated populations of the bombed out German Cities. But in the confusion they are picked up and forced into labour: to serve the Army that has been amassed to defend the Atlantic Coast of France.
The lives of Jake a young teenage boy, and the troubled British solider collide as the soldier is tragically killed on entry to Normandy on D-Day. But though his legacy the soldier is resurrected and his re-incarnation is taken on by Jake
The German Controller catches up with his prey deep inside the Normandy countryside of France.
The German woman defends her girls and new born son, against the pent up rage of her abusive Controller.
And the revived British soldier stumbles upon his long lost love, and a chance to make peace within his troubled life through securing the lives of her children.
