What do the conditions mean?
Our conditions mean the following:
- New - a brand new book
- Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
- Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
- Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
- Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

From the World War II battlefields of Italy and Yugoslavia to the uncertain peace of the present day, this spellbinding novel revolves around Hugo Burke, his battles, loves, and ideals. Rich sportsman Ulick Burke discovers that his father apparently died in battle 12 months prior to Ulick's birth. He enlists his wife, Alice, a military historian, to help investigate the matter. His shady uncle Sepelov, who now runs a Canadian foundation dedicated to the eradication of communism, is pivotal to the mystery. Aided by a large cast of interesting and well-drawn characters, Alice unravels the complex events of 40 years and eventually restores family peace. This one has everythingmeticulous research, outstanding storytelling, and an enthralling plot of multiple duplicities. Hihgly recommended.
