Book Description

Secondhand. Good condition. Wear to book corners and edges. Laminate from tail front cover has started to separate - now protected with book tape. Interior and binding are still excellent.

Fourteen-year-old Evan Warrender travels with his father to the Dardenelles, where they intend to provide succour to the Allied soldiers. When captured by the Turks, they are launched into an epic journey, living on their wits and the kindness of strangers as they escape and travel through Turkey, back to Greece and finally home to Australia.

Along the way, they meet unlikely friends and companions, some of whom have deep secrets. And when Evan's own secret is revealed, we realise just how incredible the journey has indeed been.

Evan's fascinating survival story takes readers beyond the frontline and creates an all-encompassing account of this significant time in our military history. It is a gripping novel about an incredible journey behind enemy lines, told in diary form.
