The sixteen trees of the Somme

"Edvard grows up on a remote mountain farmstead in Norway with his taciturn grandfather. The death of his parents, when he was three years old, has always been shrouded in mystery. Edvard's desperate quest to unlock the family's secrets takes him on a long journey--from Norway to the Shetlands, and to the battlefields of France--to the discovery of a very unusual inheritance."--Page 4 of cover.
