Publisher's Synopsis
A thrilling and ambitious new novel from the author of the bestselling and prize-winning Terra Nullius. Shane Daniels and Romany Zetz have been drawn into a war that is not their own. Lives will be destroyed, families will be torn apart. Trust will be broken. When the war is over, some will return to a changed world. Will they discover that glory is a lie? Claire G. Coleman's new novel takes us to a familiar world to ask what we have learned from the past. The Old Lie might not be quite what you expect. "Full of grit, wit and some very earthly truths about Australia, war and colonialism." ADELAIDE REVIEW
