Now or Never: A Dunkirk Story (Voices #1)

Description

A gripping adventure in an exciting new series reflecting
the authentic, unsung stories of our past!

Now or Never brings a young soldier, Private Fazal
Khan, from his home in India to the battlefields of the Second World
War.

Fazal’s world is now focused on Company 32 and the animals he
cares for in the midst of one of the most frightening times in history.
And as he and his friends make their way to the beaches of
Dunkirk, Fazal must deal with even more than the terrors of a dangerous
trek to reach the evacuation zone.

The Company’s captain defends his troops in the face of a terrible
betrayal at the point of rescue: not everyone has welcomed the
help brought by the Royal Indian Army Service Corps. Now Fazal
is forced to question why he is even there and why he is expected
to be loyal to a king whose people don’t all see him as their equal.
