Description

A moving account of a child who survived the IRA bomb that killed Lord Mountbatten.

Winner of the Christopher Ewart-Biggs Literary Award, recognising work that promotes peace and reconciliation in Ireland. August bank holiday weekend, 1979. 14-year-old Timothy Knatchbull was on a boat trip with his family and friends.

The IRA bomb that exploded in their boat killed Knatchbull's grandfather, Lord Mountbatten, and other members of the group.

This book provides a compelling insight into a dark period of Irish history.

But more importantly it reminds us that although tragedy can strike at any moment, the human spirit can recover.
