O knihe

Alistair. is a serious young man studying at St Andrews University when war breaks out. At first refusing to take part in the war, he soon becomes embroiled in danger and develops an unbreakable bond with his new gangster friend, Spider.

Calum. is a brash contrast to Alistair. Having stolen Alistair's fiancée, he goes on to excel in the vicious fortunes of war, clawing his way up through promotions and entirely unafraid in battle.

Derek. is at university when the war starts; his hopes of marrying Alistair's sister, Hilary, are soon dashed. Over the course of the war he takes to the skies and becomes a brilliant pilot, risking life and limb at every turn.

Fraser. is the quiet and thoughtful member of the quartet. His tragic love story while serving in the Navy is followed by a stint in a POW camp, where he undertakes a risky escape.

Hilary. seems to be the polar opposite of Alistair, willfully obtaining a dangerous position aiding the French Resistance. As Michelle La Porte, she ventures into the Pyrenees and all around France, taking on the enemy with unswerving courage and bravery.
Somewhere in France follows the lives and fortunes of these five friends as they navigate the dangerous tides of war.
