Von der hinteren Coverseite

For 90 minutes I forgot the shellfire, the rats, the Germans, the rain, the cold and the fear I felt when I was above the parapet, listening to the night.

It’s the proudest moment of Jack’s life ― his debut as a professional footballer. Now he has a chance to achieve his dream of playing for his country.

But it’s 1914 and the world is at war. Talk of sportsmen’s cowardice leads to the formation of a Footballers’ Battalion and Jack has little choice but to join up. The promise of a Cup in Flanders offers a glimmer of hope, but Jack and his team-mates will have to survive a waking nightmare if they are ever to play again.

Based on the true story of a sporting hero’s experience in the trenches.
