Starshine by John Wilcox

1914. As British forces are desperately attempting to hold off the German invasion of France, Jim Hickman and Bertie Murphy are plunged into this nightmare. Loyal friends since childhood, the pair have done everything together, from falling in love with the same girl to enlisting when the war began. But while Jim receives honour after honour, Bertie struggles to deal with the mindless slaughter around him. And back in their home town of Birmingham, their beloved Polly must find a way to choose between the two men ...
According to author JOHN WILCOX, an inability to do sums and a nascent talent to string words together steered him towards journalism - that and the desire to wear a trench coat, belted with a knot, just like Bogart. After a number of years working as a journalist, he was lured into industry. In the mid-nineties he sold his company in order to devote himself to his first love, writing. He has now published, to high acclaim, eight Simon Fonthill novels - with a ninth due to be published in the Spring of 2013 - and two works of non-fiction, including an autobiography. www.johnwilcoxauthor.co.uk
