Charlie's War by David Fiddimore
My old skipper once told me to always expect the unexpected. I should have listened to him . . . When a plane crash leaves Charlie Bassett rested from the RAF, he receives unexpected orders - to locate the elusive, pregnant Grace Baker and bring her home. But Grace, who has been following the armed forces across Europe, clearly does not want to be found, and despite Charlie's personal stake in it, this bizarre and challenging mission is still one he would rather avoid. Nevertheless, Charlie finds himself journeying to France in a car named Kate, with a dubious, eccentric Army Major and his loyal Sergeant - two men who are evidently going about mysterious duties of their own. And as Charlie moves slowly towards the front-line on this exhilarating road trip, so too does he draw closer to the woman he once loved and lost . . .
David was born in 1944 in Yorkshire and is married with two children. He worked for five years as a Laboratory Technician at Royal Veterinary College, London, then for sixteen years in the investigation division at H M Customs and Excise. In 2005 he was selected from 46,000 hopefuls and a long list of 26, to become a finalist in the the Richard & Judy/C4 'How to Get Published Competition'.
