Description
Something to Answer For
In 1956, Townrow finds himself in Port Said, summoned by the widow of his deceased friend Elie Khoury. She believes Elie was murdered, but nobody seems to agree with her. As he navigates this disorienting world, Townrow must re-examine the rules that have governed his life.
With the presence of Leah Strauss, the mistress, and invading British paratroops, Townrow is forced to confront the possibility that he may have something to answer for. This gripping tale explores the complexities of loyalty, morality, and identity in a world torn apart by conflict.
