He’s been through hell and back but it's over now. With the optimism and enthusiasm of youth, he returns home only to find his dreams are in tatters.
Rupert Pengelly briefly escapes to the British colony of Rhodesia from the bloody conflict that is terrorising Europe. His mission is not just duty-driven but a promise to look for and protect an orphaned, young girl. It is a futile search and with time running out he has no choice but to re-join the theatre of war.
When peace returns, exhausted but exhilarated, Rupert travels home to his beloved Cornwall and the farm he loves. But all is not as it seems. He has been cheated out of his inheritance. Devastated and desolate, Rhodesia is his only recourse. To begin anew.
As time passes, nothing prepares him for what is next. Another war is looming. Everything is at risk with death a daily threat and changes are coming with the chaotic tide of nationalism. What does the future hold for Rupert? Is he to face loss and despair once again, and what became of his promise?
Peter Rimmer brings to life a turbulent period of history that has unexpected twists and turns keeping you turning the pages. Cry of the Fish Eagle will leave you breathless and yearning for a time gone by.
