The King's Highway

"The King's Highway" by G. P. R. James, is a tale that begins on the rugged Irish coast, where three souls—two men and a young boy—are caught in a web of political unrest and personal struggles. The story pulls you into the aftermath of a devastating battle, through the eyes of a battle-worn soldier and his solemn companion, as a young boy stares out to sea, haunted by the unfolding events. Loss and sacrifice loom large, particularly concerning a family member's death, setting the stage for a journey filled with conflict, allegiance, and the pursuit of a place to call home, amidst a backdrop of shifting motives and uncertain futures.
