Description:
Two Oxford dons, Newall and Winterstoke, attend their colleague's funeral. Afterward Newall reveals the secret that O'Dwyer took to the grave. During the Battle of Crete in World War II a Maori soldier died in circumstances that led to his family placing a curse on O'Dwyer. How did the soldier die? Why was O'Dwyer responsible? Gradually Newall tells all. But as he moves in space and time -- from his childhood in New Zealand to Crete, from Oxford to Croatia, reflecting on wartime and peacetime, and the generations that have lived through both -- it becomes clear that the story is not just O'Dwyer's, but Newall's as well.
