by Robert Mackinlay (Author)

They'd conquered with superior weapons and tactics. But their greatest weapon was fear, using it to rule the people with harsh laws and ruthlessness. Punishments were brutal. They used collaborators, so who could you trust?In his small Belgian village Luc and his friends all had secrets, some kept even from each other. So far they had passed all the tests the war had thrown at them, but for Luc de Bel, one bad call and a tragedy would test him in ways he could not have imagined.
