Set against the backdrop of World War II, the story explores the life of Flight Lieutenant Ian Gleed, a celebrated Battle of Britain pilot who met his fate in Tunisia. Renowned for his bravery, having previously survived two harrowing crashes, Gleed's legacy is complicated by the revelation of his homosexuality, a truth hidden from his family until the 1990s. This narrative delves into themes of heroism, identity, and the struggles faced by LGBTQ+ individuals during a time of war.
