Dark Autumn (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781684700882)

It is September, 1940. The so-called phoney war in France is over. A British army has been rescued from the beaches of Dunkirk, but the Germans have greater ambitions. England is enjoying an Indian summer during September - skies are blue, and nights clear. Germany and the Luftwaffe have turned their attention to the major cities of England, and the civilian population - Hitler's prelude to invasion. Aged only nineteen, Charlie Fuller, is devastated by the events of Sunday, the eighth of September. Events that will forever change his life. The indiscriminate bombing of London has seen the loss of a small family, on only the second day of the Blitz. Charlie is devastated. He is forced to seek a new home with his cherished grandmother, Elsie. Charlie wants to fight, and he attempts to join the ranks of those eager to beat the Germans. At his medical assessment, and to his chagrin, Charlie is refused medical status to join his mates in the army.
