But when he discovers, after his fathers death, a packet of wartime letters to a former fiancée, and learns of his fathers court-martial and imprisonment, he is plunged into the mystery of his familys secret history and driven to uncover the truth about this enigmatic, distant man whod always refused to talk about his war.As he pieces together his fathers past through military archives, letters, and, finally, notes from a memoir his father wrote while in prison, secretly preserved by the officer who defended him, Stewart starts to assemble a dramatic and baffling chain of events.
