Elusive Eric


An old box containing a few family mementos included a photograph of a handsome young man, named Eric. On its reverse he had written a message to his sister. It was dated 1935. Even though it was known that he was a close relative, no one knew anything about him. And so the quest began to discover his story…..one of separation, bravery, recklessness and then having determination in order to combat forces beyond his control.
