Lurking nearby is a German submarine, stranded after its engines failed. When two local children row their small boat to investigate this strange shape in the water, a chain of events is unleashed that will change lives forever. Summer 1985 – shortly after leaving a Test match at Lord’s, the quiet and solitary Frank Fox stumbles on what appears to be an attack on a young girl in a park in St John’s Wood. Despite his age and aching bones, Frank overcomes the assailant and rescues the child. But what seems like a random event is not what it seems as Frank is thrown into a dark political underworld of terror. Can these two seemingly separate, distant worlds meet? Quies Rocks is the story of a family destroyed by war and rebuilt, decades later, by extraordinary circumstance. |
