Description

A boy off the farm, a brilliant, beautiful girl, and the coming threat of war combine to weave a tale of brave determination to overcome an impossible, mysterious disappearance. The answer appears 80 years later. High school seniors, Theo and Claudia discover each other on the eve of World War Two. Europe and Britain are in turmoil. They wrestle with the need to take a stand against the threat. From the fields of Norfolk County, to the streets and tunnels of Toronto, they explore their options. She up-ends the male-dominated physics department at university, while he takes flight with the air force. It all comes crashing down after one unexplainable afternoon. Edge of Destiny is first and foremost a love story — a tale that brings to life Phil Brown’s love for the Norfolk County of his and the previous generation’s youths. It is a story that wraps together themes of coming of age, a sense of duty, young love, small town life, collisions with world events, and more. His appealing cast of characters encounters rites of passage, theoretical physics, fixed horse races, the heady experience of university life, and most of all the consequences of the Second World War … all blended with a mystery about how undying love and Einstein’s theories can allow a young air force pilot to step out of the space-time continuum. Edge of Destiny is an enchanting, coming-of-age tale that delivers a wildly stunning conclusion.
