James and David Anderson were the sons of a successful industrialist in England, and they had a charmed upbringing in the 1930s, but each took a different path in their lives which proved to be disastrous for them both. David Anderson was the youngest charismatic brother who had been successful at university and had a flourishing business acumen. James was a wastrel and a narcissist. Two different men, two different outlooks on life that clash in a tumultuous schism. Tragedy and betrayal follow the brothers through World War Two, its aftermath to a NATO bomb plot.
