Synopsis
As ethnic tensions escalate into war, Marija returns in confusion to her native Croatia - call it a mid-life crisis. She soon takes up with a young soldier, but her age does not give her the least power over him. On the other side of the world, her estranged father is gearing up to enter the fray, raising the cash to raise an army. Exiled to Argentina, he has been waiting for this moment since 1945. But war is a young man's game, and even his closest comrades cannot be trusted. If the Old Man is to meet his daughter again it will be in a world altered beyond his understanding, where the only soldiers he commands are in his head.

Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Hardcover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. A lovely bright, fresh looking, unread copy of the first impression with crisp title lettering to the spine. No inscriptions and clean pages throughout. The dust jacket is bright and not price clipped with, maybe, a little shop shelf wear such as the odd crease to the edges and surface scuffing, but this is barely noticeable. Fabulous copy.
