Subject: Nice recording and an original story
Major Duncan Meredyth, late R.F.A., Boer War hero and wheelchair-bound dynamo, finds himself forced to sit on the sidelines of the Great War, doing whatever little trifles his disability allows him to do. As he does his duty by the Empire, and urges those around him to do the same, mysteries seems to bubble around him, in the quiet little town of Wellingsford; deep, disturbing mysteries.
Many thanks to the readers of Locke’s novel.
