Publisher's Synopsis
It is 1998 and Eddie Hall is a guard on the London Underground. He is twenty six years old and is obsessed with the past, particularly the war years between 1939 and 1945. Late one evening, towards the end of a long shift, he falls asleep on the platform at Tooting Broadway station while reading a World War Two historical textbook. When he wakes he realises that he has travelled a lot farther that Golders Green. How did he get there? How will he get back? Will he want to go back? Only time will tell.
