Summary

This is not just another memoir. Nobody's Son is a compelling story of survival. Keeling traces the life of young Jack Bunton whose chaotic childhood, traumatic adolescence and adult passions meld to create a unique journey. When at the age of 17 he joins the army his life seems, ironically, to be improving. However, granted a 48 hour leave at the outbreak of war, he visits an aunt who ends the family conspiracy of silence by revealing his true parentage. A new nightmare begins. As the young soldier is propelled into the conflict, the psychological upheaval, as well as the immediate threat to his being, makes for an absorbing adventure. The vivid details of D-Day's Normandy invasion and other wartime events are described exactly as they happened. A stint as Cage Master in a German POW camp as the war draws to a close provides a welcome change of pace; and illustrates that humour and compassion never deserted most soldiers even during that horrific time in history. Nobody's Son will keep the reader turning pages with anticipation and trepidation. As Jack becomes a man, a story emerges unlike any other. His redemption and ultimate arrival on the other side of that nightmare is a moving and inspiring read.
