Description
Lionel 'Buster' Crabb became renowned during the Second World War for his amazing feats of underwater daring.
After the war he was celebrated for embodying a particular English ideal -- a love for King and Country -- that seemed to be dying out.
Then, in 1956, during a visit to Britain by Nikita Khrushchev, who had arrived by ship, Commander Crabb disappeared.
Some thought he had perished while attempting to inspect the Soviet vessel; others that he had been kidnapped and forced to work for the USSR.
Out of this mystery Tim Binding has spun a wondrous piece of fiction.
It is the story of a man who has made deep personal sacrifices for the sake of higher ideals and who must, towards the end of his days, measure their meaning and their worth.
