About

Two stories, one set in modern Australia, and one in France with the ANZAC troops of World War I, are intertwined.  The connection comes between one soldier who left a girl pregnant in Australia, and his granddaughter, who loses her boyfriend in a car accident.  Both stories, aimed at older listeners, address moral issues of loyalty and loss.
