The year was 1939. War had just been declared. When Chris Lessing,
a young army officer from the Transvaal meets Joan Mercer, a pretty young woman from Simon’s Town at the beginning of the Second World War, the chemistry
is spontaneous and explosive. He is Afrikaans, she is English. They come from
different worlds but believe their love is strong enough to survive despite the odds.
Assassination, murder or accidental death? The author, Lan Reid, reconstructs the days leading up to the death of her father on Robben Island.
This is a story of a passionate love affair and a future filled with promise, blighted by a devastating war, where all was given and nothing returned. Did Chris Lessing know too much about the activities of his wartime unit 30 AU? Was this a crime of passion? Or was the Coroner’s decision correct?
