It's a moving tale that opens as Walter shares his life story with Joe, a compassionate social worker attempting to persuade him to go into care. The poignant narrative is set within the confines of a typical mill-town house in the bustling town of Huddersfield. Walter's life takes a dramatic turn when his father decides to send him to work alongside Troy, a robust horse that tows barges for a living. The duo creates memories that linger in Walter's heart. The story captures the essence of a bygone era, painting a vivid picture of life in a mill town during the early 20th century. The looming spectre of World War One alters the course of Walter's life thrusting him into the mud and fear of the trenches. The narrative skilfully captures the complexities of war and Walter's resilience amid the chaos. Walter's wishes to find his family add a poignant layer to the narrative. The quest for family becomes a driving force in his odyssey.
