Elderly John Howard goes off to the Jura in France on a fishing trip, except this is no ordinary time. Germany is at war with Europe. Friends at his hotel ask him to take their children back to England with him to safety as Germany is poised to invade France.
Their harrowing journey begins by train and then proceeds on foot.
'Mr Shute not only writes vividly and excitingly of occupied France, but with a delightful understanding of children.' - Sunday Times Nevil Shute
