Pernkopf’s Atlas

‘Masterfully told. A grittily moving depiction of the darkness of war, and the light of humanity in its aftermath.’

Fiona Valpy, author of The Dressmaker’s Gift.

Twice-divorced middle-aged teacher Andy Roberts’ life is on what feels like permanent hold. His job teaching History in Ballymoney Grammar is stifling him, his cold and emotionally distant father’s ill-health requires his constant attention. He’s going nowhere. The universe is conspiring though. His father’s death reveals a mystery with its roots in Germany Andy feels compelled to unravel. Even this is sidelined when another bombshell is dropped into his lap: his dying ex-wife presents him with a troubled 16-year-old son he knew nothing about. Andy’s life is turned on its head. Is Andy doomed to repeat his own father’s mistakes, or will solving the riddle of what happened in Occupied Germany bring redemption to father, father and son?

Some say first love stays with you forever. It's the summer of 1978. When aspiring teenage rock star Paul Fox writes a song in the grip of an adolescent passion, he can have no idea that that song will go on to shape his whole career and, indeed, his life. As his fortunes and relationships ebb and flow, and triumphs and tragedies come and go, the song always reminds him of the great unresolved and unrequited love that inspired it, and the girl he wrote it for. Will Paul ever get closure or will what might have been be all he ever has?
