The Thread of Flame

by Basil KING (1859 - 1928)

Part 1, Chapter 1

Edward wakes up on board a ship crossing the Atlantic, on his return from the Great War – however, he finds that his memory of who he is and where he comes from is only fragmentary. The book follows his fascinating journey back to health and his growing realisation about what effect the War and its aftermath has had on him and also on the people he meets - as well as his family. (Summary by Simon Evers)
